    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…

    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…
