Welcome to ‘Interior Alaska’ – the land between the mountains. Fairbanks sits in the center of the state and is the jumping-off point for visiting the high Arctic. One of the few big landlocked towns in Alaska, Fairbanks is often overlooked since it’s not a cruise port. But that doesn’t mean that there are not […]
My mom and I turned into the French Mountain parking lot in Cape Breton’s Highlands National Park. After pulling into a parking space I walked over to the Skyline Trail sign. I had been told hiking the Skyline trail was one of the best things to do on Cape Breton. This was supposed to be […]
Cheese, beer, supper clubs, football, cows, and an old fashioned…this is what comes to mind for me when I think of Wisconsin. And I must admit – I love all of these things and these alone are things that would spur me to take a vacation in Wisconsin. However – I want to add one […]
Since moving here, I’ve discovered so many unique things to do in Denver every day. This isn’t your normal best-of sightseeing in Denver bucket list (no AI here!); you’ll find things that aren’t listed on any other list of Denver activities.

Quick…when I say Wisconsin – what comes to mind for you? For me, it conjures up images of rolling hills, cheese, cows, football, supper clubs, and……booze. Yes – that might not be what Wisconsin wants to be known for, but I can’t help it, when I think of Wisconsin, I think of cocktails. For some […]
Before we even got to the start of the famed Confederation Trail biking route, I had my eye on the lobster shack at Victoria By the Sea. I love biking; this new-to-me activity has won me over and I’m excited to explore new destinations by bike. However, I REALLY love lobster, and the thought of […]
Looking for a real Whiskey Row Denver experience? I’m not talking about a simple restaurant that happens to serve a few whiskey drinks…yawn. I’m talking about a real 3 block area in Denver Metro where you can experience the largest combined whiskey inventory in the state (and one of the largest in the nation), PLUS, […]
Just an hour’s drive from Denver, spending a weekend in Colorado Springs is so easy. I’ve visited the region a couple of dozen times; more if I count the trips I made with my family as a kid growing up in western Kansas. My grandmother lived in Colorado Springs during her later years, so I […]
Any time I can get closer to the mountains is a good day. I live in the heart of Denver near downtown, so when I get out to the front range foothills I’m a happy gal. The foothills that run north to south around the Denver Metro welcome you to our beautiful Rocky Mountains and […]
