This summer we spent some time in Glacier National Park – one of the most beautiful places in the country! The landscape filled with glacier carved peaks, valleys of wildflowers, lakes and rivers is all set against the big blue sky of Montana. An incredible combination that spells beauty. While we were there, my husband …
As you know, I LOVE to travel! I just got home from a three week, 5,100 mile road trip across the Western United States. More on some of these great sights will becoming soon! I try to alternate our travel between the US and abroad. One local that is on my bucket list is Asia …
Sometimes the summer sun is sizzling hot, and no matter what we try to do, it seems like we cannot escape the grip of the scorching heat. When the weather gets like this, I like to head to the hills for relief. When my kids were little and we first moved to Morgan Hill, we …
My husband and I just enjoyed a few days of fun and relaxation all while exploring the beautiful city of San Francisco. If you follow me on Instagram you saw some of the delicious food and drinks that we enjoyed. San Francisco is only 90 minutes from our home – so we get up there …

When we traveled the Mayan Riviera just south of Cancun in Mexico, I had a few must-do items on my travel list. First and foremost was to climb an ancient pyramid. While their are other archaeological sites that include pyramids in the area, namely Tulum and Chichen Itza, Coba is the only site that still allows you …
