  • Longest Trip

    Longest Trip

    What’s the longest trip you’ve ever taken? View all responses Since most of our trips have been delegated to just a weekend, it is always extra exciting when we can push that boundary.

  • Budget Travel!

    What’s your best tip for budget travel? Sorry for the late late post but we are currently on the river and the wifi is a bit spotty here. For budget traveling, it always helps when you have a clear idea of what you will be spending on things like gas and food, and amenities. That…

  • Talking Pets

    Talking Pets

    While I no longer have a pet myself, I could imaging just all the ridiculous statements and conversations Bella would be having. While she is a pretty smart golden retriever/pit bull mix, she had her rather dumb and silly moments for sure. We had a couch she would sleep on in the living room and…

    Regrettable Read

    This prompt is going to be quite personal and if you are triggered by mentions of sexual content, please read this at your own discretion. I would say I regret reading the whole series of 50 Shades of Gray one-hundred percent. Back when I was taking in this type of content, I was also going…

  • Worst Airport?

    Worst Airport?

    Not going to lie, I have never flown in an airplane nor really been to the airport, other than to pick people up. What I will say in my little experience with DFW International Airport, is that the traffic is HORRENDOUS and they need to work on their signage. There is a mall relatively close…

  • Disliked Tropes

    Disliked Tropes

    Ugh I have a few big ones lol! My absolute least favorite are definitely love triangles. Mainly due to the fact there is typically some form of physical and/or emotional cheating going on. This is made even more apparent when the main character flops back and forth, seemingly physically incapable of making up their dang…

    Reliving a Year

    Honestly, I would not choose to go back in time to relive any of my previous years. Even though the year could have been a mainly positive and productive one, I could not handle going through the downs once again. Now if I had the ability to change or react differently to something, that could…
