Summer of 2024 included planes, trains, & automobiles as I traveled across 6 states: Arizona, Hawaii, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, & Cali!

I dream of visiting the white-sand beaches at the Virgin Islands National Park.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?I really enjoyed the adventure we had this summer. Not only did I take my kids on an epic adventure, but I got to treat my sister-in-law and nephew to many different activities. We have so many memories of paddle boarding, going to Six Flags, a water park, swimming in lakes and rivers, and seeing family at all the different stops along the way. We even got to hop on a train across the states for the first time. It was great having fun as a big family and making all of those memories.
What would you do with $10,000?I would use $10,000 to take my kids to visit our family in Puerto Rico. I would love for my children to visit our family and friends, and to see the beautiful island and to get to know their culture.
