My family and I are huge fans of staycations. They encourage us to still go out and discover something new together closer to home. Toyota contacted me recently and asked me to check out their 2014 Highlander for a few days. Of course, testing out cars means wee[...]
My family and I recently ventured into Central Park to enjoy a beautiful Spring day. Even after living in New Jersey for 2.5 years, we still find ourselves attracted to the city's energy. We only live 35 minutes by train, but it feels like a world away and it's nic[...]
