Every so often you find one of those towns you fall for. The idyllic, romantic, old school village of Shelburne Falls stole my heart, and even though it’s quite a drive I can’t help but find reasons to return again and again. The road to town is beautiful and there […]

I know there weren’t too many freezing cold or snowy days this winter. I am happy for that fact. We did have a handful of days where it felt good to cozy up with a cup of hot cocoa, and one afternoon I did just that at Vischer Ferry General […]
The Mauna Lani Beach [68-1400 Mauna Lani Dr, Puako, HI 96743 – follow the signs to Historic Shoreline Access] is a hidden gem in plain sight, north of Kona. This resort is incredible, and the best part is you don’t have to pay big resort dollars to experience it. After […]
Sandwiched between the city and the sea you will find a forest haven away from it all that Croatians have been flocking to since the 3rd century. It is oft called the ‘lungs of Split,’ and what a lucky city to have so many beautiful and cleansing pines so close […]
Searching for severely scrumptious sweets in Soho? Look no further than Dominique Ansel Bakery [189 Spring St, New York, NY 10012] where the pastries look as good as they taste. Hop on line and try to decide what you are going to get, no easy task. This joint is known […]
Are you a crazy cat lady/person? I am pretty obsessed with my cat; she’s a sweet, inquisitive, and beautiful beast. I love other people’s cats, strange feral cats, and all of the cats I met at Animal Kind in Hudson (721 Warren Street, Hudson). This place is a dream for […]
Top Picks: Haleiwa (Cultural, Northshore) One of my favorite things is getting the feel for a new town. Haleiwa is just small enough and kitschy enough to be a perfect place to explore in one day. There is one shopping main strip that runs through the town, you can park […]
Top Picks: Byodo-In Temple (Wildlife Sightings, Koi Pond, Windward) This was one of our most memorable activities of the trip, and for some reason I almost had us skip it thinking it was just some run of the mill temple, I’m so thankful I didn’t because it is so much […]
Manoa Falls & Lyon Arboretum (Waterfall, Educational, Honolulu) A waterfall hike has a great draw, what a beautiful payoff for your labors. There was work being done on the road to the trailhead so the only free place to park was down the road a bit. We didn’t mind walking […]
A trip to Cooperstown for most usually has something to do with baseball, but it has a whole lot more to offer than that. Our first trip there was in the fall; it was a beautiful drive and included a trip to The Farmers Museum and Brewery Ommegang. The Farmers […]
I had a great time in the Catskills the other day with a friend meandering about roads watching the leaves change their colors. First stop was Kaaterskill Falls for a worthy little hike. The lower trail begins with Bastion Falls, and leads you to the bottom of NY’s tallest two-tiered […]
My Mom and I had such a hoot visiting Muscoot Farm in Katonah, Westchester. The grounds are free to enter and there is a whole lot to see! First you notice all of the farm animals. I enjoyed observing and spending some time with the many different creatures about. There […]
