The List.....a living document




Military families are always on the move. My family has moved every three years for the last 12. This makes us a well-travelled and adventurous lot!  Now, we are looking forward to another two years in New England and thus the Bucket list grows.  You'll note a couple places outside of the NE states (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island) but for us, it is all relative to this part of the planet :)
