Be it ever so humble, there's really no place like home, is there? Every summer I am reminded of this truth. The warm months of summer are when my family gets away. And we love to travel, either to see and experience new places, revisit favorite vacation spots, or to enjoy precious time with friends and family who now reside in other parts of the country and the world.

To that end I've become a Certified … (26 comments)
