I walked upstairs yesterday to find J busily looking up information on cross country trips, as we’re about to embark on one of our own in just a few days.

He’d discovered a couple checklists he really liked, with reminders to do things like pack a first aid kit, and travel games and toilet paper.

Then I looked over his shoulder and realized the checklists he’d gotten so excited about were courtesy of Oprah and Gayle’s Big Adventure.

He asked me if it was ok that he was printing out checklists written by Oprah Winfrey, and I explained to him that that was totally fine, but he should know that I was definitely going to write about it on the World Wide Web.
