I traveled a few miles this June. School let out for the summer, and I left for Spain and Italy with a group of students and co-teachers. We had a blast! Here are a few of my favorite pics:

Next, I hit the road to celebrate my parents' golden 50th anniversary! Kudos to them for staying together for the long haul. I am proud to be their daughter. We celebrated at my brother's new home/farm in Springfield, MO.
Next stop, Ohio! Another anniversary--my husband's parents celebrated a 60 year milestone which Google tells me is the "diamond" anniversary. Amazing. We spent the weekend swimming, barbecuing, and eating homemade ice cream. A lot of it.
Finally, my family and I went to Michigan--to Macinac, Island and the Upper Peninsula. This was our first time in the area (except for me when I was six years old so it still felt new). We enjoyed ourselves! I can't even begin to tell you how relaxing the bike ride around the island was. I loved it!!
I highly recommend it for your next get-away.

I have more photos of my experiences on Instagram at @mindybakerbooks. It is such a treat to travel and see new sights and places with the ones I love. I treasure each moment! Where have you been lately and what have you been up to? I would love to hear about it!
