From Austin to Seattle, With Love!
I have finally ticked off one of my American travel goals! During the week of the 4th of July, we packed up our bags and are headed to the Northwest! Goodbye Austin, hello Seattle!
Winter Wedding
Weddings are one of my favorite events to attend! There is something so special about baring witness to the exchanging of vows between two people in love.
Hidden Beauty
It's so funny how sometimes the most beautiful things are hidden in the most unexpected places. During a recent trip to Miami, I was introduced to Cauley Square, a little-hidden gem in South Miami.

Meandering Around St. Pete
There's nothing I love more than walking around and just getting lost in a city. St. Petersburg is such a beautiful city with a temperate climate and crystal clear waterways. There is the Dali Museum and wonderful local restaurants with a Spanish flair.

After about an hour or so walking, talking and falling out of hammocks, it was time to head over to the pre-wedding … Continue reading Living the Tropical Life

Well fed and overly caffeinated, I hit the road again with hopes of reaching the 'ville before midnight. This portion of the drive is always a bit difficult due to the nature of the roads. While they are very well maintained, there are only pockets of lighted spots. Once the sun goes down, you have … Continue reading Just a Few More Hours
SNAFU!
I'm a planner and it's typically hard for me to break out of that mindset when on a "spur of the moment" type trip ... so in my infinite wisdom, I thought it best to not book a hotel room until we were close to New Orleans. Well ... I accidentally booked my hotel for … Continue reading SNAFU!
“Fast Food or NOTHING” Hour
The majority of the drive from Texas to Florida is done on I-10 and one of my favorite stops along the way in New Orleans! About an hour outside of New Orleans, you'll find the Louisiana state capital, Baton Rouge. This is also home to Louisiana State University (LSU) and where you find college students, … Continue reading “Fast Food or NOTHING” Hour
