Road Trip Survival Tips- For Grown Ups
I am the worst on a road trip. I’ll own it. And I’m not really sure why in my mid-30s this is still a thing with me. Generally speaking, I’m a pretty easy going person.

Las Vegas: Things to Do
I likely spend my Vegas vacation a little different than most. For example, I was on my morning run at 6 a.m. on the Strip and dodge people walking home from the club.

And by… Continue reading Travel Time: Flying without Liquid Courage

Free Things To Do in D.C.
I’ve been blessed to visit Washington D.C. a few times over the years. I love the city because I find the energy so intriguing. Maybe it’s because I worked on a Congressional campaign many years ago – or because I binge watch House of Cards – whatever it is, I love spending time in D.C.… Continue reading Free Things To Do in D.C.

Washington D.C. restaurants are amazing and I always make sure to hit up as many as possible when I visit the nation’s capital. Every year I make sure to tag along as my husband makes his annual business trip back to this awesome city.
