Colorado- Day Four
Day four: First, on the agenda was the Molly Brown House Museum! She survived the Titanic, and she is known for her activism, philanthropy, and passion! & her name is pretty great as well! Then, it was time to get on the road and drive to Colorado Springs. We started hydrating in the car because…
Colorado Springs- Hotel Tour
After three days in Denver, it was time to head south to Colorado Springs. We stayed at a four-star gem called The Mining Exchange. The hotel “is a tribute to the wild souls who carved hope and prosperity out of the mountains.” It has a neat past and even an art gallery (more on that…
Colorado- Day Three
Day three: Early morning wakeup to hike Eldorado Canyon State Park. Now, trying to find the Eldo Shuttle was an adventure. (The parking at many of the state parks was minimal, so we had to park at an off-site location for many of the hikes and take a shuttle to the trailhead.) We sat on…
Colorado- Day Two
Our first full day in Colorado started early. (Travel Tip: pack bars so it takes the guess work out of breakfast.) We both had a bar for breakfast, J mixed Hydrx in one water bottle so we had some electrolytes for the day’s adventures, and he filled two more water bottles with water. You don’t…
Colorado- Day One
Every year, my husband and I take an anniversary trip. This year’s trip was to the Centennial State or the colorful state of Colorado. Crisp air, beautiful scenery, and so, SO much adventure. Early mornings and late nights- we had an absolute blast and filled every inch of the trip with new experiences. So without…
Colorado- Hotel Tour
Colorado has always been a bucket list trip for us. We love the mountains and we love a thrilling adventure. Colorado definitely delivered. On one of our hikes, we met a big family from Indiana. After we reached the summit, one of the guys joked that the news report would say: 15 strangers stranded in…
Book Talks
During Father’s Day Weekend 2024, my parents wanted to show me the new bookstore in town: The Lynx. We walk in and there was a book talk/author visit going on. The author’s story captivated me and I ended up buying her book. I had never been to anything like this before, and I really enjoyed…
Anniversary Weekend
6 years! I can’t believe I married my dream guy six years ago. He is everything I hoped for and more. Loving him and being loved by him is the greatest blessing. Can’t wait to see what God has planned for us next. We started anniversary weekend by getting up and biking the West Orange…
Paris- Hotel Tour
I think one of the hardest parts of planning a trip is the hotel! I always want the hotel to be just right. The right location and the right vibe. I always do extensive research before booking a hotel. I read travel blogs, I read reviews, I bookmark several hotels, and then I keep revisiting…
Paris- Day 7
& on the last day in Paris, we saw a French cat! We went to a cafe for breakfast and there was a sweet cat that lived there. He definitely had a mind of his own but he was adorable, nonetheless. After breakfast, we headed to the post office, so I could send postcards back…
Mother’s Day
Since my parents are going on a trip in May, I went home to Gainesville for Mother’s Day exactly a month early. Gainesville is fascinating and the people are so interesting. Due to the university, Gainesville is a melting pot of cultures. I experienced a hailstorm Friday night. The pieces of ice were as big…
Go Gators!
The last time we made it to the Final Four, I was in grad school. UF received so many student tickets and took charter busses full of students to Dallas. Things like this are a once in a lifetime opportunity. So my friend, Nicole, and I went! & we had the best time: concert in…
