The Six of Us

Welcome!

Bobbie is mom to four road-trip-loving kids who are finishing their ninth year of homeschoolIng. For them, learning is a lifestyle and opportunities to learn are everywhere.

This Georgia family doesn’t hesitate to drive home to Texas for family time, to road trip for weeks every summer, or to prioritize family adventures over “schoolwork”. If Dad has to work, Mom and the kids take off across the US without him. When away-from-home trips aren’t possible, they can be found enjoying Georgia’s lakes, mountains, gardens, museums, and state parks.

Mom loves to find the hidden gems in small towns, the overlooked gardens and museums, and the local history sites. She has an incurable disease called wanderlust. Constant trip planning is the only cure she has found. Onward!

I would love to collaborate with you to promote your place or product. Please check out my media kit and reach out.
