A Canal Runs Through It -- the C&O Bike Trail

A Canal Runs Through It

Travel is expensive, especially in America. Thus, the arrival of the so-called "staycation," the oxymoronic equivalent of a cruel joke perpetuated on people who are unaware of cheaper options.

Turns out, growing up in Hawaii has affected me more than I could've ever thought. And for that, I'm so grateful.
