Carnival Cruise to the Bahamas
The Pros and Cons of a Cruise Vacation (and Some Travel Tips) I must admit, when my hubby first proposed that we take a family vacation on a cruise ship, I had some major trepidations… I love the ocean dearly, but I’d seen the movie Titanic one too many times. Not to...
Why a Staycation Might Be Just the Getaway You Need
You’re going to love this so-called “travel post” if you’re an introvert, low on funds, or a mom who is simply too exhausted to even conjure the mental fortitude or energy to pack and plan a trip for the whole famdamily. (You feel that deep in your soul; amirite?!)...
Bramwell, WV
Nestled in the hills of West Virginia is a legendary little town known as Bramwell, and the “Town of the Millionaires.” It acquired this title, and particular notoriety, back in the late 1800s when it was once home to the greatest number of millionaires, per capita,...

Travel Tips for First Time Fliers
If you’ve never traveled by plane, this post is for you! And if it’s been a while, a refresher never hurts… I actually compiled a similar list of tips for a family member who was getting ready to fly for the first time and was having more than a little anxiety about...
Weekend Getaway That’s a Howling Good Time – Great Wolf Lodge
Looking for a weekend getaway that’s sure to be a howling good time for the whole family...? Great Wolf Lodge is just the place. We have visited this wildly entertaining destination twice now, and both times it did not disappoint. And I imagine we’ll go back for many...
Rocky Gap Casino and Resort
My favorite kind of present is an adventure! So, this year, Kendall and I went on a weekend trip to Maryland as our Christmas gift to each other. I personally love this “gifting” option (which we do frequently) not only because it’s fun, but also because Kendall is...
