More Fun in St. Thomas

I never win anything.  Well, I take that back.  I’ve won 1 or 2 giveaways, but when it comes to live drawings, I usually don’t win.  That changed on Monday night at our resort’s poolside raffle.  There was a grand prize, and I won! They called 2 other names before they got to mine, but [...]

On My Way to St. Thomas!

Hello, my lovely readers!  If this post-scheduling thing goes according to plan, then about the time that you read this, Chris and I will be on our way to lovely St. Thomas for the next 10 days.  Aaaaaah, sunshine, sand, and seawater!

Chicago!

First off, let me say that when it comes to taking photographs, I’m terrible.  I either forget to take them, or when I do take them I grow impatient.  I’m excited to sign up for some photography classes once we move to New Zealand.  Hopefully, I’ll learn how to do a much better job than [...]

New York New York! It’s a Wonderful Town!

We leave tonight for our New York mini-vacation, and I’m so excited! I’ve been singing the “New York, New York!” song all day today and yesterday, and I had to leave you with this classic scene starring Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra from “On the Town”. It’s so upbeat and fun and just makes me [...]

Marco Island Vacation Summary!

Hello my lovely readers :-) I’m back, and raring to go! I had a wonderful time in Florida and loved seeing all of my family. I am a little bummed about the weather in Massachusetts right now – highs of 60 degrees and rainy all week – blech. It’s the end of June – shouldn’t [...]

A Little Taste…

Here’s a little taste of the view from where we’re staying…

Marco Island

Hi everyone! Well, we arrived in sunny, gorgeous Marco Island, Florida yesterday afternoon. We picked up our rental car at the airport in Ft. Myers, then swung back and picked up my SIL, Nicki, who was flying in from Chicago. The three of us headed south to California Pizza Kitchen, picked up a couple of [...]

Trip Summary: Photos of Chris, Bear, and Maine

Hi Everyone! We’re back from Maine, and we had such a great, relaxing time. We stayed in a Marriott hotel using some of our Marriott points (sidenote: I think that Marriott has the best reward program, but that’s just me). Here’s some photos of our room… Kitchen/Dining Area Living Room Area Bedroom Some of you [...]

On the Road Again…

Very shortly now, Chris and I will be heading out the door for our fun weekend trip to Maine :-) Bear will be nicely deposited at our favorite boarders for a time of fun and grooming, so it’ll be like a mini-vacation for him, too! Have a great weekend everyone! Maine Horizon

Weekend Trip to Maine

I had a realization while blow-drying my hair this morning – Chris and I have seen very little of New England since our move here in August. I had this big urge to get out of town this weekend and see the area where we live! So, Friday after work we’re headed up the coast [...]
