When it's just you and your partner in the car it's easy to turn on the radio, slap in your favorite CD, or blast the satellite radio system. But have you ever thought about using that time to reconnect?

Car rides are great times to plan out your coming week, talk about a big decision facing you, or just catch up.

So before your next car ride tunes each other out with musical tunes, try talking and reconnecting. You'll get where you're going and just may strengthen the relationship along the way.
