Do you recognize that painfully awkward girl on the left? Maybe you know a kid that’s twelve years old. If you don’t know any twelve-year-olds, try to remember something from your own days in sixth grade or middle school. Or maybe, like me, you’ve spent a good portion of your adult life trying to forget those socially-awkward, pimple-faced, hormone-imbalanced, shaky …

Greetings, y’all!  In today’s newsletter, I’d like to share a little glimpse of life from our little log cabin during this Christmas season.

The guide instructed us on how to accelerate, how to steer, and off we went—about 15 of these cumbersome, floating, …
