LATEST TRICKS: Falling in love

4th of July will never be the same
In mapping our route, researching destinations, and planning our itinerary over the past couple of months, our perspective on America has begun to deepen.  It is evolving into a much richer sense of this country we call home.  As mentioned in our first post, both the sharing and the planning has contributed to making Old Dogs New Tricks an amazing trip already and we haven't even hit the road.  This past weekend, we celebrated the 4th of July weekend with friends, family and strangers.  We observed throughout the weekend that our sense of the holiday and how American independence came to be is so much more personal to us this year than ever before.  While we have always treasured and valued our country, we are finding that it is never too late to fall in love!  -- Laura
