Today I was interviewed about the First Friday we are hosting in November on the local High Plains Public Radio station. I am a total public radio nerd so this was so much fun. Take a listen! http://hppr.org/post/stratton-first-fridays-interview-bri-hill-kastner

In the last six weeks, my energy has been swallowed by my teaching job. And another thing….Which gives me some exciting news to share… We are creating the […]

Cuba has been on my bucket list since I learned that it was off limits. The idea of exploring the country seen as forbidden was as tempting as a teenager girl with the bad boy. It took some convincing for Matt to leave on a random weekend in April but after having one […]
