Whew this has been an exciting week!
Ben is off getting hitched this weekend, and has been making an admirable effort to not work. While challenging, it's actually been extremely enjoyable for me to set aside the bulk of my usual responsibilities to focus on blogging every day (and I'm grateful to have Spencer, James, and Steph jumping in to help as well). This has been a nice change of pace, and I feel a bit like we're both on vacation!
He'll probably be mad at me for making a fuss over this (sorry Ben! This is what you risk by going to the ends of the earth and leaving me in charge!), but how happy and handsome do they look?

Meanwhile, I've happily been home in Eastern Washington, where September is secretly the best month of the year.
I haven't been traveling much this summer (or really this year) due to everything else we have going on, but that will be picking up this fall, which I'm quite excited about.
I'll also be traveling to meet up with Ben in the next week or two to film more videos for the new YouTube channel, so if you have ideas for videos you'd like to see please let us know in the comments!
Finally, as James embarks on his four-month trip, he'll be taking over the OMAAT Instagram on occasion. He'll be visiting some fun places, and as destination pieces don't always make it up on the blog, be sure to follow along there if you want to see trip highlights.
