Life is Short.

Take Time to Travel.

Live vicariously through my travels while you’re in-between yours!

Vacations were a huge part of my childhood and now road trips keep us busy during retirement. We try to make the journeys as exciting as the destinations.

At the end of each trip, I always include a “recap” which includes what we saw, where we stayed, and a link to each post. My hope is to inspire you to use every one of your vacation days. Enjoy!

Our Latest Adventures

I don't do this often, but I didn't get very far on my "Eight State Getaway" posts anyway, so the rest are getting the boot (for now) in favor of a series from our latest winter road trip. I'll try to skim over some of the other stuff before we get to our absolutely fabulous stops in Utah. I can hardly wait to get started on these posts, so follow my facebook page so you'll know when each new post is complete!

Please excuse the mess on older posts while I update my site.

  • Third Time’s a ~Cancelled~

    If you've come to read about another great road trip where we hightail it outta Wisconsin for some of its winter – well, you're outta luck.

  • Racine, Wisconsin

    Today we're visiting the city of Racine, Wisconsin to get a double dose of Frank Lloyd Wright and to see another fabulous lighthouse.

  • Kenosha, Wisconsin

    After thirty-something years hauling-ass past Kenosha when driving to Chicago and beyond, we finally stopped. On a chilly day in November.

  • Deep Freeze Recap

    Posts from our 2020 Florida road trip are complete. This recap provides an outline of where we went and links to posts about each stop.

  • There’s No Place Like Home

    When we caught up with the news, we headed home the next day. This abrupt ending was much different than originally planned, that's for sure.

  • The Great Escape

    An airboat ride in the Everglades, a gator show by the Gator Boys, and a beautiful red lighthouse finish off our time in Florida, well almost.

Life is Short. Take Time to Travel.

Use every one of your vacation days my friends. And consider a journal of your experiences, so you can remember some little detail that will make you smile for years to come.
