And Miles To Go Before I Sleep - Our Family Travels
Show Notes

Traveling has always been a hobby for us, since our first spontaneous Hawaii trip, to Boston, to a Spring Break we won’t soon forget, our family has lived on the go.

In this episode Daniel and Samantha talk about their family travels since before they were even “family”. Join us on this adventure as we walk you through all of our past family travels and the ones we have planned in the future.



Historical Family Travels

  • In January 2016 our friend Jessica told us about sub-$100 flights to Hawaii where she was living at the time. We found out and something like 3 or 4 days later were on a jet airliner headed West.
    • Schofield Barracks was our home for the few nights we stayed on the island. 
    • North Shore was our first stop, and it was a great experience.
    • Bellows Air Base has a beach that is at least one pair of Oakley sunglasses richer. Boogie boarding and expensive glasses don’t mix.
  • Spring Break 2016 involved a Harley ride in a GIANT loop across the mid-west. 
    • Harley shops and taprooms/breweries were our key objectives, coffee shops etched their way into our plans as well.
    • OKC - Longview - Memphis - KC - Guthrie
  • In late 2016, we found ourselves in Austin, TX. It was a pre-deployment pass that led us to some of the most fun we’ve had on the go.
    • 6th St was a great place for two-steppin’ and playing a game of pool that Daniel doesn’t remember. Thanks Heath for joining us.
    • Breakfast burritos from the sketchy trailer on some random corner are a thing of legend now. We contemplate going back just for another bite.
    • Luckenbach is awesome. Luckenbach by way of Harley is almost untouchable. Thanks, Jon, for joining us there.
  • Boston in October, when baseball is roaring loudly into the playoffs… one of the greatest places to experience.
    • We went to two Red Sox games, and bought three games worth of tickets… (playoffs!)
    • Our AirBNB was infested with a fungus. That led us to a trip up to Revere Beach. That’s a way better place to stay anyway.
    • Whale Watching was apart of this adventure and it was enough fun that I promise we will go again
  • Many more places have been a beacon to our traveling souls. Listen in to hear about our cruise, our trips for business and more.
