sunrise at hike inn.
Hard as it might be to get up early the day after a strenuous hike, missing the sunrise at Hike Inn is not an option. Even with the clouds, the sky is magical.

photo friday: graceland
How can you not go to Graceland while in Memphis? I’m not really a fan of Elvis, but Graceland seems like a place everyone should visit at least once in their lives. A house frozen in time. Wacky and Wild. Unfortunately, the Rock & Roll Cafe was sold out of the toasted peanut butter and

Summer. The time for our big family trips. We’ve made some memories on our travels – camping in Evie on the Out West trip. Living in Galway for three weeks on the Irish summer. Turkey, Japan, St. John, Cape Cod, and more. Unless by some miracle the stars align next summer and we finally get
