Here’s a kid after my own heart. When I was his age, I loved learning about different states and memorizing their capitals.

I believe this began my love affair with traveling. Back before smartphones, I was the one in charge of the trip tik from AAA.

I could feel the rush of being the one who was responsible for getting us from point A to point B. And each flip of that page meant we were one step closer.

Watching Jake put together this puzzle is like watching myself in a mirror. I know that this is only the beginning for him and his knew found love of traveling to see what these different places have to offer.
