Hilton Head, Again
Never in my life did I think I’d be spending this much time on Hilton Head Island, but here we are. And I’m not mad about it. At all! Chuck has had a few work projects here, and timing has worked out to where I get to tag along. So this summer, I’ve already been…

Time for a Change in Location
It’s time. After years of talking about it, Chuck and I have made the difficult decision to pack it up and start a new life in Atlanta. I’m excited and nervous and sad and all of the emotions one can think of. When I made the decision to move to New Orleans in 2013, I…

A Strange and Wonderful Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras 2025 was a strange one. As usual, our final two weekends started with our participation in the Krewe of Cork parade. This year, we were able to participate in the Grand Marshal dinner on Wednesday night and the Meet and Greet party on Thursday before the day-long festivities on Friday. To say it…

Laboring in Vegas
I’ve posted on here a few times about my enjoyment of traveling to Las Vegas. My husband and I go a couple of times a year and we always have great experiences. This past Labor Day, we hit up some faves while also trying out a few new spots. We started out by staying at…

Oh, When the Saints Come Marching In
The start of the NFL season is always a good time here in New Orleans. But this year has been a little different. With the Super Bowl coming to the city at the end of the season, there is an excited buzz around town and always small, very very very small, glimmer of hope that…

All Inclusive Resorts: Worth It?
Have you seen an increase in posts from the “content creator” and “influencer” community across social media? I’ve been intrigued by the posts across those who do this on the travel side. While I consider myself a Light Content Creator, at best, I most definitely make zero dollars off of it. I do it for…
