There really may be no more lovely place than spring in Georgia. If it’s not raining, that is. I hate Georgia in the rain. Or the snow. Or the ice. But. I recently visited LaGrange, Georgia and the weather was lovely and spring was sprouting out everywhere. Which is my favorite season. When it’s not […]
Remember in the old days when you would go visit your relatives, and Uncle Bob would get out his slide projector, darken the room and proceed to give you a blow-by-blow travelogue of his recent trip to ___ (fill in the blank)? Well, at the risk of sounding like your Uncle Bob, I’m going to […]
There is a tradition in our family loving all things haunted. My sisters, niece and nephew love to tell ghost stories when we are together. Some of them are actually scary. Some are pretty lame, but it doesn’t stop us. So when DH and I had a chance to stay in the haunted Crescent Hotel […]
Winter is not a season I do. I (barely) do Christmas and then I’m ready for spring. Bring me daffodils and bunnies, please. But magazines, influencers and stores are showing late winter and Valentine dĂ©cor in February. New, fresh spring colors haven’t quite hit yet. And I need a little inspiration, please. So I did […]

We took a whirlwind driving trip midweek to visit a few Utah national parks and enjoy a little cooler weather. There were some hits and misses on this goal and here’s the wrap up. Lake Powell – HIT We packed a LOT of food with us. The day before we left, I made Grandma’s potato […]
Grocery shopping is not high on my favorite-things list.  But!  Trader Joe’s is one of my happy places. Too bad the closest one is a 35-minute drive. Which means I don’t go every single week, but I get a lot of my staples there – especially freezer staples. The people who work at TJs are […]
Phew, for somebody with no life, I have a lot to share on today’s post. I want to share a few updates on my life this summer and make a couple of recommendations. Renewed Commitment to Exercise I might have mentioned before that I am taking a little respite from running this summer. The number […]
We were fortunate enough to get away for a couple of days mid-week last week to visit Kohl’s Ranch in Payson, Arizona. We visited there last summer and had such a wonderful time we went back. This year we went with DFs Evon and Barb and Stu. Our rooms all lined up facing the pool […]
