A holiday tradition around here is the annual Friend Feast on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It began as a second Thanksgiving meal with friends, a whole bird roasted by the hosts and sides provided by the attendees. Over the past couple of years, the hosts, Beer Scout Crossbow Project and his wife Jenn, have turned Friend ...

Or you have vacation days burning a hole in your pocket. Whatever the reason, travel is fun! If you’re reading this ...
