image source Hi Y’all, I wanted to stop in and let you know that I’m going on Summer Break. You might have noticed I’ve been pretty quiet with new content on the blog the last few weeks and between my day job, traveling, and soaking up every last bit of summer, I decided that it’s best for me to officially take a couple weeks off from the blog.
