Let it Flow – Presque Isle, Lake Erie
Last year for my birthday I took a day trip to Lake Erie. The main reason that we ended up going there was because there are a couple of dog friendly beaches which means that Roxy could spend the day with me and that’s always something that I want to be possible. We went, had a great time, and ever since I’ve been thinking about going back.
Darrin and I pick a few goals for each season throughout the year that we want to do together. Going to Erie was one of them for this past summer.
Once the end of August gets here I am in panic mode and try to get everything done that I want to do before the snow flies again. I mean, we still have a while for that (hopefully) but there are things that I want to do when it’s warmer than 50 degrees out and going to the lake is one of those things.

Connection – Letchworth State Park
Letchworth was our last stop on the family trip that I took last month. You can check out the previous posts here and here. I really liked this place. There are three main waterfalls in the park and tons of hiking trails. We did a short hiking trail and then saw all of the waterfalls. […]

Thought Collections – Watkins Glen Experience
I went to Watkins Glen for a day. Well, an evening actually. I was passing through the area with my family on the way home from Lake Placid and we stopped to check it out. I do think that this is a very beautiful place but I was coming home from a very amazing trip including […]

I’m Obsessed with Mountain Towns – Lake Placid, NY
My yearly family vacation typically happens at the beginning of August. Over the past 5 years we’ve usually hit up the beach followed by some hiking either in Tennessee or Virginia. This year we did something a bit different and went north. I’ve been to Boston before but that’s the most northern I’ve been; and […]

Everything is Lovely and Magical and Wonderful
I’m finally taking some time to sit down to write this post because so much has been changing over the past two months and this trip happened right in the middle of my decision making. When I got back I just didn’t feel inspired to share. I wanted whatever I wrote to be genuine and […]

What I Ate in Ocean City, Maryland
I went to Ocean City, Maryland this past weekend. I haven’t been there since 2013, exactly one month before I went vegan so I knew that this experience with food would be pretty different than the last. Upon going, I researched some veg friendly places and came across a few which was honestly more than […]

Shenandoah National Park Trip – Cost and Tips to Get Outside More
June 1st. Shenandoah. There’s no better way to start the month. Fresh air. No cell phone service. Good company. Trees. Sunsets. Hikes. Friendly strangers. Abundance of Clif Bars. I made some last minute plans with a friend to meet up in the park for a quick trip. It’s a 4-5 hour drive (depending on where […]

24 Hours In NYC – What I Ate
I got to spend about 24 hours in NYC last weekend. It was (as usual) a pretty great period of time and it always leaves me wanting to go back again asap. While there I made it a goal to eat as much good food as I possibly could in the span of time that […]

1000 Steps Trail
I ventured to 1000 Steps this weekend. It’s a hiking trail in central Pennsylvania that I have been wanting to check out forever. This weekend it finally happened and I loved it! Let me start out first by saying that it was tough! A thousand steps up the side of a mountain is no joke. […]
