I dreamed of the southern city by the sea, warm with palms, oaks, and Spanish moss…With one day to explore Historic Savannah I had to plan the perfect itinerary. Wear a good pair of walking shoes and get ready to take in the sights! Our day began at Forsyth Park […]

The beach is my happy place, and it seemed like everyone in Hilton Head was happy at this beach too. Kites, bikes, sandcastles, swimming, and strolling – so many smiles and laughs at Coligny Beach Park [1 Coligny Circle, Hilton Head Island, SC 29928]. There is a huge free parking […]
It’s just a tree. But if you’re the kind of tree hugger who has a book about identifying trees on your shelf or the type leaf lover that is willing to hike a few miles to check out a particularly extraordinary tree, you may understand the draw to see this […]
Charleston is a city overflowing with bright colors, architectural charm, and palm trees. It’s very walkable, although there is also a free trolley that can get you to where you need to be. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, so if you plan on staying for a few […]
When I heard that there was going to be a Norman Rockwell exhibit at The Hyde Collection [161 Warren Street, Glens Falls, NY 12801] I was all in. I had recently fell in love with his work at another nearby museum, and it turns out most of the work seemed […]
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 […]
The Big Island is the youngest of the Hawaiian Islands and still has active volcanoes. For this reason, you won’t find as many long stretches of sandy beach as you would on the other islands, but a lot of rocky lava beaches. However, on this island you will find hot […]
After a long day of traveling and too short of a night’s sleep we woke up in Pahoa on the Big Island, our home for the next five days. Most people choose to stay in bigger cities (‘bigger’ is relative because all cities are pretty small on Big Island) like […]
Any time I enter a garden conservatory I feel as though I’ve been transported to another land. No matter what the weather is outside, under the glass frames the temperature is catered to the warmth the plants require – and I happen to crave. A visit to The Botanic Garden […]
Moab is a Mecca for the outdoorsy. Most flock to the national parks or state parks, it is easy to overlook the townie preserve. Scott M Matheson Wetland Preserve [820 Kane Creek Boulevard, Moab, UT 84532] is a vacation from your vacation. You won’t find admission fees or a crowd, […]
Service is really important in restaurants. When a place has really good friendly service, you feel even better about the food. When the food is just as great as the service, what could be better? We felt right at home in Sweet Cravings Bakery and Bistro [397 N Main St, […]
Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas [Located in the Median at the beginning of the Strip, plug in 5100 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89119]! For most, this sparkling sign is the image that pops up in your head when you hear ‘Las Vegas.’ The sign welcomes you into […]
Gambling. Entertainment. Neon. The Fremont Street Experience is the Las Vegas Experience. Fremont Street is the location of old Vegas where the first hotels were built. Now it has a very different feel from the main part of the strip. Neon signs are everywhere you look, it’s absolutely fabulous. This […]
The integration of art and nature, nothing is more delightful than an outdoor sculpture park! Andres Institute of Art [98 NH-13, Brookline, NH 03033] is the largest outdoor sculpture park in New England, and it is free to visit. There is an excellent trail map in the parking lot which […]
