Life & All The Things In Between
Early in our vacation planning, we knew we wanted to make a trip to the Island of Hawai’i (also known as the Big Island, because it’s the biggest). I’ve already covered how we navigated the COVID requirements to travel between the islands in a previous post; Traveling to Hawaii during COVID. I also highlighted the [...]
When it was time to book places to stay while in Hawaii, Aaron and I went back and forth between hotels, Bed ‘n Breakfasts, and Airbnbs. At the beginning of creating the itinerary, we planned on staying in only one place. Staying in one location the entire trip would have been the easiest way to [...]
After a year of canceled plans, Aaron and I decided to embark on a vacation to Hawaii. Why Hawaii, you ask? It’s a bucket list destination for both of us, and Aaron has friends currently living in Oahu. Win-Win for us! Booking flights and places to stay was the easy part. Navigating the COVID requirements… [...]
The popularity of bees has been a cultural phenomenon recently. The “Queen Bee,” Beyoncé has her Beyhive, and I was seconds away from titling this post “Beez in the Trap,” but Nikki didn’t get back to me in time, so here we are. My first memories of bees go way back to when I would [...]
Being born and raised in Florida, traveling to Key West is like the pilgrimage to Mecca; you have to go at least once in your life. I can’t believe it’s taken me 31 years to make it there, and of all the times to go, I decided to go in the middle of this never-ending [...]
I have tried and failed to go on a trip with friends this year. I know, this year is not the year to go anywhere except the grocery store, work, and home. But I still long for the excitement of going on an adventure and exploring new places. The only exploration I’ve been on is [...]
This past weekend was Aaron's birthday. We made plans for me to spend my weekend (which is currently Tuesday & Wednesday) in Knoxville. Early Tuesday morning we were easing into our morning routine. Aaron was cooking breakfast and getting ready for work. I was sitting on the couch hugging the portable heater and watching the [...]
Washington D.C. is a travel destination I would suggest at anytime of the year. This was our second trip to the area. The first trip was a quick three day whirlwind. This time we wanted to spend a full week in the city and the surrounding areas. When making our itinerary we also wanted to [...]
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. Any holiday involving food, family, and relaxation has my name written all over it. This year was extra special because I was able to go to San Antonio to spend time with Aaron's family and play tourist around the city. After a few days of stuffing our self's [...]
This weekend was all about flying. It started with a quick 10 minute flight to Peter O'Knight Airport for the AOPA fly-in. For the size of the fly-in it was pretty busy. There were airplanes of all shapes and sizes. The icon A5 was doing demo flight to those lucky enough to get a spot, [...]
