    Summer Series: Must Do’s In My State, California Pt 2!

    07/26 /No Comments

    Sacramento, the capital of California, is not a common vacation spot. When people think of California, they imagine Los Angeles, San Francisco or Napa Valley. Growing up in the Sacramento suburbs I never thought of my hometown as a travel destination. Why would someone want to visit this area? However, as the saying goes, distance makes the heart grow founder. Now that I’ve moved out of the area I can see why Sacramento is a great place for a vacation. Here’s my top reasons to visit Sac Town. By Kristen Kehl of Hello Minder Food. Sacramento is known as America’s Farm to Fork Capitol. Hundreds of acres of farm land…

Top Things to Do in California   by Laura Jafarkhani Author of Lala To Mama   California is an amazing state! It is one of the largest in the United States with plenty to do and see all over.

    Summer Series: Must Do’s In My State, Michigan!

    07/12 /No Comments

    Thank you to Becca from Mom Cave for giving her Must Do’s for Michigan. I have been to Battle Creek in the winter and let me tell y’all that is the coldest I have ever been in my life! Michigan is gorgeous however and hope that you find inspiration from a native. I am from Michigan and honestly, the things that I love about Michigan are not necessarily what others will recommend but here you go. I think that our greatest treasure is the Upper Peninsula. It is beautiful and unpopulated. But be warned, cell service is spotty at best. Visit the ghost town at Fayette State Park in the…

    Hey y’all, I’m Beth from Alabama and I’m here to tell you…it’s not what you think.  Go ahead. Think about every stereotype you’ve ever heard or assumed about Alabamians. We talk slow, love sweet tea, say funny things like “y’all” and  “bless your heart.” You might even assume a few of us are what you call “rednecks” down here. Guess what? You’re right about everything! But…give us a chance. There’s more going on down here than you think!

    Summer Series: Must Do In My State, Virginia PT I!

    06/21 /1 Comment

    I am dipping my toes into new waters and collaborating with numerous bloggers from around the world! This will be a summer long series and I will have a new city, state, and country to share weekly for you to enjoy and plan your trips. I personally love to travel and have trips booked out for two years already. I constantly scour Pinterest and Tripadvisor for where to go and what to do so I thought why not get the To Do’s from people that live there! I hope you find great inspiration from this series and thank you to everyone that has contributed to this. This post may contain…

    I have no idea when I recorded this and if I had to guess I would say 13 years ago. This is a one take session and there are some imperfections, but I love this song! Of course it has been modified from the original by Bill Withers, whom I adore! Hope y’all enjoy!
