I was surprised by how much I thoroughly loved San Antonio. I really enjoy finding what is unique about a place and exploring. This was our 2 day family (of 5) getaway where we explored The Alamo, The Missions, The Riverwalk, Down Town, Historic Pearl Street and even a Biergarten! View this post on Instagram…

Jacobs Well, Wimberly and Lucky Arrow
I’m happy to report and share another whale of a time and grand adventure with the kiddos! I love finding hidden gems and exotic type locations right in our back yard. Traveling is tough during COVID19, but not impossible. And there are tons of outdoor, social distance friendly type places to go. This was a…
Congress Bridge Bat Egress
Well I won’t lie, I was not immediately intrigued when a friend mentioned a “Bat Egress” for my next adventure with the kiddos… but boy was I glad I proved myself wrong! Nature just has this way of being magical, majestic and beautiful *always* and especially when and where you least expect it. The bat…
Stonehenge II, Waterslide Dams and Wineries, oh my!
Aka Day 2 of our Fredericksburg/Ingram family getaway. What a whale of a day! Not sure we could have crammed more into it, but it didn’t feel rushed! There was adventure, excitement, ice cream, relaxation, wine, beer, food. All the fun things. One thing I love about about having Littles is that you wake up…
Fredericksburg, Texas

Spicewood, Texas with the Fam

We decided to take the family to Krause Springs in Spicewood, TX one hot summer July day after discovering it on the blog “My Curly Adventures.” This blog…
Taos Ski Valley
Taos Ski Valley Living in the Hudson River Valley of New York for two years forever spoiled us with regard to ski season. The winters may be brutal, but the snow had its perks. We lived about 15 minutes from a small, but adequate ski mountain and were within an hours drive from well known…
Mohonk, Affordably
Lets face it. If you want to go to Mohonk Mountain House, you’re going to have to shell out a bit of cash. Nightly rates start at around $600/night PER PERSON, if you book early enough, use a coupon code and get a great deal. Weekend stays can be prohibitively expensive. And entire weeks? Well… […]
