Zipping Our Way Through (really AT) the Natural Bridge Caverns
In sticking with my goal of doing SOMETHING new (as often as I can) once a month I decided to use Father’s Day as one of those opportunities.

Magnolia Silos, Shopping, and Cupcakes
An impromptu trip to Branson led to an even more impromptu stop at the Silos.

House of Cards (aka Washington DC)
(Original post 04/2016) Another work trip.. but I cant complain when it’s a place as gorgeous and filled with history as this one.

Sleepless In Seattle
(Original post from June 2017) I had the pleasure of visiting Seattle, Washington for the very first time.
