Virginia is for lovers! It is also for history buffs, outdoor enthusiasts, wine connoisseurs and more. From the mountains to the sea, this beautiful state has plenty of unique places to visit. We love to explore Virginia outdoors, so we compiled a list of a few of our favorite natural wonders! Luray Caverns Grand Caverns…
Oh Savannah, I have fallen in love. Beautiful historic buildings, old-growth trees draped in Spanish Moss, and the quintessential southern charm is everywhere you look! We made plans with friends to meet in Savannah for a long weekend. They would be flying as they are a bit further away, and we were driving. Kyle’s dad…
Happy New Year! Happy New Decade!! I am no “New Years Resolution” type, but I am ridiculously optimistic. I love the feeling of a clean slate, and think every day is a new chance to work on being the best version of myself. So I always find myself brewing a pretty lengthy list of goals…
If it wasn’t obvious by now, we are big fans of camping! We love the outdoors and the minimalism (ha!) that comes with it! Thankfully, our boys enjoy camping too. I’m pretty sure my youngest would live outside 24/7 if I let him. Here are some of our must-haves when we go camping! We recommend…
When traveling, we often seek out Children’s Museums in the towns that we are passing through. They are the perfect place for kids to shake off some energy, connect with others and learn new things! Richmond is a little over 1 hour in the car for us. Every so often, we drive down there to…
Every year for my birthday in August, we take a quick weekend trip to a destination that is a reasonable distance from home. This year we visited Charleston, South Carolina. Kyle had to work there earlier in the year and went on and on about how he wanted to take us to visit. Conveniently, Kyle’s…
I racked my brain for days over whether or not we should join Kyle on his work trip to Prague, Czech Republic (Czechia). He only had a few weeks notice, so we would need to act quickly. It would be the farthest we have ever traveled from home and the most expensive plane tickets we’ve…
Every July for the past 5 years, the Museum of Culpeper History has held a Dino Walk event at Luck Stone Quarry in Culpeper, Virginia. They proclaim these dinosaur tracks as the largest collection ever discovered in North America. These particular dinosaurs were part of the early Triassic period beginning more than 215 million years…
I have lived 34 years without ever visiting the Sunshine State! It seems like a destination that everyone has been to! Maybe it is the beautiful weather or the endless beaches. Somehow it has eluded me for so long until June 2019! Long before kids, Kyle and I had always talked about driving the whole…
“What?!, You are writing an adventure blog and you are afraid to fly?!” Yep, that’s me. Well, it was me. To be honest, all public transportation gives me some kind of anxiety. I need to know how the Pilots’ lives are going, if the Captain of the ship is having a good day, was the…
