Always on the Go (Little Yellow Bicycle The Escape)


This is for my Dad's memorial album. For as long as I can remember, my Dad was always traveling, whether it be for business, pleasure, or philanthropic purposes. Even after he sold his company, and supposedly "retired", he still worked. He chaired many boards and helped get small companies off the ground. His travels even took him on a dream trip to the Galapagos Islands a few years ago where he toured the islands in a glass bottom boat. I journaled about all of this plus my memories of the great souvenirs he brought me when I was a kid. Nice memories...
