Eating and Beaching at the Lovely Henderson Park Inn
When I read online that the fridge in the Presidential Suite at the Henderson Park Inn was going to be “fully stocked”, I was immediately intrigued. Fully stocked. Fully stocked. What exactly did that mean? I have had fully stocked fridges at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and Punta Cana and fully stocked meant filled … Continue reading
The Fabulous Burrito Treatment at Silver Shells Spa in Destin
I now know how a turkey feels. Also a burrito. A turkey burrito. Let me backtrack. We just spent a completely and totally fabulous day at the Silver Shells Resort and Spa getting pampered within an inch of our lives. And we loved every second of it. My SIL had a great massage but what … Continue reading
Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort or as I like to Call It HEAVEN ON EARTH
You ALL. Seriously. I may never come home. The Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is quite, quite, quite fabulous. You know that I planned a spur of the moment trip to Destin and it was just luck and the kindness of the lovely folks at Sandestin that my sister-in-law and I ended up here. In paradise.

Shoes, Glorious Shoes!
I wouldn’t want you to think that I might possibly like shoes, but I have an entire shoe closet. That’s right. A shoe closet. I was just re-watching the second “Sex in the City” movie and I was amused and just a teeny bit smug when Carrie was gloating over her fabulous closet because seriously? … Continue reading
Muir Woods – A Wilderness Right Outside San Francisco
In the middle of the little town of Lahaina on the island of Maui, there is an ancient banyan tree that is massively huge. It has spreading, winding branches that fill the little park where it’s located. It’s quite impressive and was the largest tree we had ever seen. But it could have been gobbled … Continue reading
Irresistible Ireland
We were determined not to be slack-jawed Americans, who stare at the unfamiliar in Ireland in incredible awe – we fail. But this was different. This was incredible. This was a castle. We stood outside the hotel and tried to be cool and calm and not let anyone know that inside we were as giddy … Continue reading
Two + Years of Traveling the World
Pyramids of school supplies are starting to appear everywhere I go and many of my teacher friends are already back at work.
