Sad to say, I’m back from vacation. I had great plans for posting while I was camping/sitting sea side. Naturally, all of those plans slipped away as soon as I stepped foot at the beach. So instead, we will do installments!

As a child/teenager I used to pack a gym bag full of tapes/CD’s and spend all road trips listening to my favorite bands, day dreaming out the back window. I would be thousands of miles away, lost in another city, maybe another time – in love. I used to dream of dancing but that’s a story for another day. Since this young age, music has been a major factor in my life. I’m never without it. It was only natural I made a playlist to incorporate my feelings as I took what may have been a trip of a lifetime.
