It’s Snowing in Florida!
Attention: Florida is having snow! Real snow! Snowcat Ridge is Florida’s own recently opened winter wonderland; it's located in Dade City, about an hour outside of the Tampa city center.
Stay Gold at Copper Mountain
Saturday morning, we took off for Copper Mountain. About an hour and a half away from Boulder, Copper Mountain is a great spot for both winter sports enthusiasts and people who just like to play in the snow. They have tons of activities, like the Rocky Mountain Coaster and free snowshoe tours, as well as plenty of shopping and dining. Another key activity at Copper Mountain? Tubing.
On My Bucket List: St. Augustine’s Nights of Lights
One of my bucket list experiences is to travel to our oldest city during the holidays for their famous Nights of Lights celebration. Running from mid-November through the end of January every year, the historic town of St. Augustine has every corner decorated in dazzling lights.
A Day at Point Reyes National Seashore
Located an hour north of San Francisco in Marin County is a vast area of protected Northern California coastline called Point Reyes National Seashore. From hiking and kayaking to taking in breathtaking views, there is plenty to do! This place is definitely worth a visit on your next trip to San Francisco or the Northern California coast.
Where to Eat in Savannah, Georgia
When Tyler and I were planning our 2020 anniversary trip earlier this year, we ultimately landed on visiting Savannah, Georgia. However, since we took this road trip while I was pregnant and while we were traveling with dogs and while the world was in the middle of a global pandemic, we were a little more limited in our usual vacation activities. Fortunately, all of that couldn’t stop us from eating well (and often).
Ready to Set Sail?
Over the past eight months, the coronavirus has altered every aspect of our lives. From how we go to the grocery store to interacting with friends, family, and strangers. Travel has been hit especially hard, and the cruise lines may be the ones taking the hardest hit.
Your Must-Dos and Must-Eats in Asheville, North Carolina
While Tyler and I have been considering some potential babymoon plans, Asheville, North Carolina, has come up more than a few times. I have been fortunate enough to visit Asheville on several occasions over the last few years, with my most recent visit being in January of this year. It served as the perfect reminder of all the things I love about the city. Since my first visit to to Asheville in 2015 to now, whether it's been a visit with Ty or a girls' trip, these are my absolute must-dos and must-eats for Asheville, NC.
Why Ellijay, Georgia, Needs to be on Your Fall Bucket List
2020 has been the year of the Girl’s Trip and my recent trip to Georgia was no different. Myself and 5 of my girlfriends took a road trip up to the Georgia Mountains for a long weekend of fall activities and sweater weather. We stayed in a small mountain town called Ellijay, located a little over an hour outside of Atlanta and 30 minutes from the famous downtown Blue Ridge. There was so much to do within these small mountain towns and for sure must for any fall bucket list.
California Relief Efforts
One of my favorite places in the world is California's wine country, and we've talked about some of our California favorites several times on the blog already. Katie has shared her must-dos and must-eats for San Francisco, while I have highlighted why Sonoma should be your go-to in California's wine country, even letting you in on a little hidden gem called Petaluma. Unfortunately, as you know, California has been devastated by wildfires in recent months. Over four million acres have been damaged and about 30 wineries in Northern California have been burnt to the ground.
48 Hours in Paris, France
Most recently, I was with my husband Tyler in Paris over the holidays in 2018. Due to some poor planning on our part, we ended up with just two nights in the city, but we certainly made the most of it. You could easily spend weeks uncovering new things about Paris; however, if you find yourself with only a couple days there, here are my recommendations for must-dos.
