happy friday, you guys!
we leave for vacation in 2 days, my to-do list is getting longer by the minute and *fingers crossed* that we are officially SELLING our car today!
as it all progresses, i will be sharing what it looks like to be car-free in a city where snow is on the ground over half of the year. but for right now, know that i am SO pumped!
here are 10 awesome links from around the web!
