Sunday Money Roundup – Yurting The Week Away.

For most of this coming week, my wife and I will be up north staying in a yurt. Don’t know what a yurt is? That’s one on the left there – it’s like a tent but with real furniture inside. We are staying up near Big Sur during whale-watching season, so we are really looking forward to unwinding with no phones, internet or television – it’s entirely off-grid…and just what I need. I have guest posts scheduled all week, so be sure to check those out and visit the contributing site. If you email me or try to get in touch and I do not respond, now you know why and it’s not because I am ignoring anyone. While I contemplate what I need to bring with me, here are some articles that caught my eye this past week!
