In January alone, more than 45,000 American families lost their homes to foreclosure. That number sounds high, right? January 2007 saw about 20,000 less foreclosures.

Stumbling the blogosphere this week landed me on a lot of new sites. A lot of them themed around travel. I haven’t planned anything for this year yet, but last year landed me in the “land down under.” Where I will land this year is a mystery for now; for me, my wife, and the […]
