I recently traveled with 2100 of my clostest friends on a cruise called "Cayamo", put on by Sixthman, featuring singer-songwriters like Shawn Mullins...
We visited the "City Market" region of Kansas City, Missouri over this past weekend, taking in the sights and sounds of their farmer's market.
Having been in operation since 1857, City Market is one of the midwest's longest-running farmer's markets, with restaurants, shops, museums and entertainment venues, and of course, lots of fresh fruits and vegetables...
A recent trip afforded us the opportunity to visit Vicksburg, Mississippi's National Military Park, which memorializes the battles and soldiers of the Civil War.
I just got back from a trip to visit Shannon (we decided to meet in Albuquerque), and we had a great trip! We rented a Jeep and headed to the mountains.
Shannon's family has some property at Toledo Bend Lake, and we are headed there this weekend. I have only been to Toledo Bend once before (no thanks to my cousin, Neil Carret!), so I don't know much about the area.
There is a survey out that reveals why couples fight while on vacation. It's a fact, almost 80% of couples say they have at least two big arguments when on vacation. Some even go so far as to sleep in separate rooms.
Sometimes, vacations are more work than rest and relaxation. Here's a tip from someone who has done both, and why sometimes, the less 'touristy' vacations are many times the better experience.
Having the chance to share so much with someone who knew you back then and has watched the twists and turns of life from afar was healthy for us both. Our time together was a reminder of the value of the people who knew you when you were young.
Vacations are supposed to be relaxing, but anybody who’s gone on a family trip knows that all of the moving parts associated with the journey can be quite stressful.
I took advantage of a 4-day weekend to take a road trip to Lake Cypress Springs, Texas, located near Scroggins, TX. (Between Interstates 20 and 30, halfway between Shreveport and Dallas).
I attended a family reunion over the weekend (the Richard Family, originally from Cow Island) at Palmetto Island State Park. It wasn't my first time at the park, but it was the first time I got to see the Meeting Room and the Splash Pad.
