Accommodations
We want snow and we want it NOW.
Ironically, we have actually returned from this trip to find plenty of snow on the ground here and schools closed. But we still adored all the snow we found on our trip, the great snow activities, and the wonderful people we met. More on all those topics soon, I promise. So Lexington, Kentucky is unseasonably … Continue reading
Pin ItHyatt Regency McCormick Place Chicago
Even though Chicago is only about a six hour drive from us, we just discovered this fabulous place in the last year.

Pin ItEmbassy Suites Downtown: St. Louis
If we could have chosen the perfect hotel for our stay in St. Louis, that hotel would have been an Embassy Suites. We have stayed in them previously and there is just nothing like their expansive, two room suites and that incredible, complimentary hot breakfast. So it was certainly fortunate that the Embassy Suites … Continue reading
Pin ItSonesta Resort, Hilton Head Island

But come April, this lovely location will welcome all the families who have been returning for visits over the decades. I spent a … Continue reading
Pin ItThe Reynolds Mansion Bed and Breakfast Inn, Asheville, North Carolina
I like to think I am somewhat classy. I have a dining room, china, and silver. I even set the table in the dining room with my china and silver fairly often. My family makes fun of me for using china to serve things like tacos but I feel like it should be … Continue reading

It was the view that made us fall in love with the Omni Hilton Head Oceanfront Resort.

Seattle is one of the best places in the world to visit if you want a green, healthy, organic experience.

Pin ItGirlfriends Getaway to the Emerald City
Seattle truly lives up to its nickname; surrounded by acres of dark green forests and the clear, bright green water of Puget Sound on the West and Lake Washington on the East which sprawl on both sides of the isthmus where the city is located, from the air it’s a green paradise. Staying Green in … Continue reading
