Roaming Indigo. Traveling the blue world, inhaling peace and calm. My name is Stella Dryden, and I love the world and the variety of people in it. I want my children to understand a reality outside their small community. My husband and I have traveled with our little wonders since they were merely months old. We have enjoyed road trips and international destinations, the world’s biggest banjo and the Eiffel tower. Along the way, we’ve amassed travel tips and ideas that may help you plan for your vacations. Our family has really been blessed through these experiences; I hope others may be, as well.

With my family, driving through the middle-of-nowhere Kentucky trying to find a distillery, we topped a hill and encountered the most beautiful scene I've ever witnessed. It was tranquil and peaceful and filled to bursting with significance and something of the eternal. A steep hill on our left, a line of gently swaying trees lined the entire street for miles on our right. Horses ran in their field, the steeples of their stables poking up in the distance. It was breathtaking. Even years later, the smell and feel of that day stay with me. As a child, we had a picnic in Rocky Mountain National Park just outside of Estes Park. Dad and I opened a bag of oreos, and a deer ran out of nowhere and nabbed the bag! We had a tug of war with the deer, who eventually got away with the entire bag. Visiting again seven years later, the entire scene played out again!
