It’s no secret that we’re animals lovers here at TheConstantRambler. We dedicate much of our time enjoying nature, and love nothing more than taking photographs of wildlife, even when they’re not in the wild. When we found ourselves looking for some thing to do while in Pittsburgh the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium was a natural choice.

Grand Traverse Resort and Spa – Romance Done Right
Getting away for a weekend of romance and relaxation should be on every couples’ list. We always have a little snafu when planning a weekend getaway. Our snafu has a name, and her name is Zoe, our 70 lb Weimaraner. While visiting Traverse City, Michigan we were looking forward to a weekend of fine dining and spa treatments, but no one wants to have to wake up early to walk the pooch and make sure she is fed and happy while also trying to enjoying a weekend of romance. The Grand Traverse Resort and Spa has an ace up there sleeve and treated us to a weekend we would never forget, Zoe included. We had a complete weekend of romance done right!
Touring Tabasco and Avery Island’s Jungle Gardens
Touring food factories can be a hit or miss venture. Some times you get a really hands on tour that gets you up close and personal to the action which can be pretty fun. Other times you’re stuck sitting in a room watching animatronic dolls tell you a companies history circa 1982.
