Max Out of Pocket – January

Well, I will just come out and say it – Mrs. Max OOP is officially an American. It has been a while since I’ve done one of these little updates here at Max Out of Pocket. That’s not to say we haven’t had a lot going on. The last time I did this I was writing about leaf-peepers descending on our town and now we are knee-deep in the snow writing about a new American...

Max Out of Pocket – October

Well, we made it through the army of leaf-peepers that descended on our town for the first few weeks in October. The peak fall foliage weekend for our area landed right on Columbus Day this year.

We even got in some...

Max Out of Pocket – July

But that’s okay because we have been busy living life. When I last checked in, I mentioned that we were in the middle of a staycation in our little vacation town here in New England. Talk about a great way to start the...
