Rejuvenate Your Journey

I’ve always considered summer to be a natural and perfect time for rejuvenating the body, mind, and soul.  The weather is warmer, the days are longer, and the schedules have potential for quieter days.
It’s the perfect time to consider some creative and even low-budget ways to spend those moments in rejuvenating your journey.
