One Night with a Barking Tree Frog
I lay in bed with the covers pulled up, just about to burst with fury. Someone had the nerve to walk their tiny, yippy dog this late at night, right outside the door of my room at the resort.

It doesn’t matter if it is winter, spring, summer or fall, San Francisco is pretty much always chilly, especially near the bay, so wear layers or tuck a wrap or sweater in … Continue reading

Photo Friday: Paris Hotel in Las Vegas
When we visited Las Vegas and stayed at the Paris Hotel, we had actually been to Paris, France just a few months prior to that. So the Paris Hotel was very surprising in how accurately it portrayed parts of Paris. Tom got this shot of the Eiffel Tower at the hotel. Pin It
