When you think of Florida beaches, you think of soft sand and striped cabanas. We were looking for a less populated, natural Florida beach where sand is not dredged and trucked in. Blowing Rocks Preserve turned out to be exactly what we were in search of. Check out these amazing photos!
We visited Keystone, CO while on our 35-day cross-country road trip in July. We were fortunate enough to have a friend recommend the pet-friendly Inn at Keystone. We booked our stay for 2 nights and ended up adding an extra night because we loved it so much. One might think that a ski resort would only be fun when there is snow on the ground, but this is definitely not the case. We had tons of fun, and the resort was a perfect fit for us and our two dogs.
If you’re looking for a fun way to feed the whole family, and bring along your pets, look no further than Food Truck Monday at Hollywood’s Arts Park at Young Circle. The Miami Food Truck schedule brings them every Monday night from 5:30 – 9:30 PM. An army of Miami’s famous food trucks descend on Hollywood to satisfy even the most discerning foodies’ cravings. There are usually 20-30 trucks in one location that offer everything from Italian staples to exotic Korean fusion delights. After visiting several times over the past few months we decided to share this great event and tell you about some of our favorite trucks!
I woke up the morning we had to leave New Orleans with a sense of impending doom. We were leaving the seediness and debauchery that we enjoyed so much in NOLA, and heading towards the wholesome goodness that is visiting my father. I had a heavy heart that morning, because I hadn’t spoken to him once since I had quit my job and started aimlessly driving around the country. I knew that my visit to the gulf coast and Pensacola wouldn’t be filled with the partying and drinking or solitude of nature I preferred on vacation, but rather serious talks and reflection.
Leaving San Antonio was a bit heart-breaking for us. After spending 4 days with Mike, Blythe and Prince Leon, it was very hard to leave. I was pretty shocked at how quickly my nephew became the center of our long weekend and was sad to leave him. It really helps that we will see him again in a few days, but more on that later. The upside to the day was the fact that by this evening we’d be enjoying food and drink in New Orleans.
