Our Epic October Trip (Part 3: North Carolina)
On Thursday we were prepping for our third and final state hop—until our flight home of course—but we (intentionally) did not have an early flight. So, we took the morning slow, said goodbye to the DreamMore Resort sorrowfully, and then visited this Dolly Parton statue in Sevierville before sitting down at the local Cracker Barrel Continue reading

Our Epic October Trip (Part 2: Arkansas & Tennessee)
On Friday, we had an early flight to Arkansas, where we planned to spend the weekend with my cousin Brittney and her family.

Our Epic October Trip (Part 1: Texas)
Sometime around mid-May, I mapped out a trip on my computer. Things were starting to open back up again, restrictions were being lifted due to the increasing availability of the vaccine, and I wanted to get the HECK out of town. At first, it started as a crazy idea. A whirlwind. Practically a tour—if we Continue reading

When in France… (Our European Adventure: Day 8&9)
June 20th, 2019: So, as you can probably imagine by now, THERE. WE. WERE. Our suitcases were upstairs, tightly packed and (miraculously) zipped, and we had twin taxis scheduled to pick us up at 10:30 a.m. for our 1:15 p.m. train. We were headed to Paris and I was fully intending to have bread at Continue reading

It Started with Whiskey and Ended McNasty (Our European Adventure: Day 4&5)
Sunday June 16th, 2019 On an average day I don’t usually have whiskey with my breakfast, but when you’re in Southern Ireland and there is a Jameson Distillery twenty minutes from your hotel, sometimes you find yourself having whiskey for breakfast. Which is why at around 11:30 a.m. our group found ourselves feeling pretty good on Continue reading
