Carolina Pad -- Who's ready for a Road Trip? CONTEST CLOSED!

CONTEST CLOSED!

I am so ready for a break this Spring! It's been a long, cold, rainy, dreary winter in Southeast Georgia!

So, Liz and I were delighted when we were blessed to receive the Road Trip Collection from Carolina Pad!

We received 2 each of spiral-less, personal notebooks, and two-pocket folders.

This set is just perfect for taking on trips during Spring Break or Summer Vacation -- and it's really going to come in handy for Liz as she and my Daddy are taking off up the Eastern Seaboard to Canada in early June. They'll be traveling on my Daddy's Goldwing Trike! It promises to be quite the adventure as they travel from Savannah to Nova Scotia.

Liz has promised to record her thoughts and memories of the road trip in her notebooks for me to read later. I can't wait! She can keep other mementos of the trip in the pocket folders: menus, maps, receipts, tickets, photos.

I've been using my notebooks, too.

You see, I have so many stories told to me by my Nan. I don't want to lose them. I want to keep a written record to pass down to Liz' children one day. Computers crash... disks get scratched... hand-written notes in notebooks I can keep in the cedar chest.

My memory is long, thankfully, and I am remembering even more as I write these stories.

Carolina Pad offers so much for the student or writer in the family! They have Planners, Calendars, Folders, Pens, Pencils, Binders, Dividers, Notebooks, and Calculators! Everyone in a cool, sassy design!
