“We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.” I love to travel near and far. This is where I will share my travel experiences with you. Of course, I hope you will share your travel experiences with me as well. How else will I know where to go next?
This is my first gratitude post since discontinuing Friday Favorites. Looking through the photos I’ve taken in just the past 2-1/2 weeks, I can see it will be a challenge to cram a month’s worth of wonderful into one post. I will do my best. This month I tried combining favorite moments into collages. Next … [Read more…]
My how time flies! Apparently–according to the calendar, at least–we are one month into spring. I’m not sure Old Man Winter got the message. Nevertheless, I am moving full-speed ahead (or slightly below the speed limit) on my Spring Bucket List. Health and fitness 1. Train for and complete the Utah Valley 10k. I started … [Read more…]
We are enjoying 10 days at El Sol La Vida in beautiful Mazatlán, so I have much to be happy about this week; so much so, that’s it’s difficult to narrow the list to something manageable for one Friday Favorites post. Therefore, I’m going to fall back on my trusty a-picture-a-day format. Friday, April 6: Catching … [Read more…]
I’m on vacation this week, taking a break even from blogging, but I didn’t want to let a Tuesday go by without posting, so I decided to share an oldie, but goodie (at least I hope you think so). Last week, I was sitting on a beautiful beach, enjoying the rugged black lava rocks and … [Read more…]
Happy Friday from beautiful El Sol La Vida in Nuevo Mazatlan. Since I’m on vacation, I’m keeping it simple with a picture a day. I hope you enjoy them! Friday, December 29: the first cup of coffee by the ocean is always the best Saturday, December 30: reading an excellent book by the pool Sunday, … [Read more…]
Two months ago I joined a group of bloggers in creating summer bucket lists. Summers just seem to fly by, and I never do all the things I want to, so a seasonal bucket list seemed like the perfect solution. I came up with 16 things that I wanted to accomplish before September 21, with … [Read more…]
I am officially on vacation with the family at Bear Lake. I hope you will forgive me not writing a Tuesday post. I do have some photos you might enjoy! They say a picture is worth a thousand words. And then it was time to say good-bye to Bear Lake for another year! ***Your turn*** … [Read more…]
This Friday Favorites crosses the border from magical Mazatlan back to home sweet home. And if you ask me, both sides are pretty great. I hope we never reach a point where we wall off whole countries from ourselves. Part of what made our trip so great was the wonderful mixture of people we met from all … [Read more…]
As we are nearing the end of a delightful vacation, I am torn between not wanting the magic to end and wanting to see my family again. I am just not ready to let go of the utter relaxation I have enjoyed this past 12 days. So I ask myself how can I hang on … [Read more…]
This week’s Friday Favorites is an exercise in self-control. I am limiting myself to one picture per day and one sentence per picture. That’s not an easy task when you’re somewhere as beautiful as Nuevo Mazatlan. Wish me luck! Friday, March 10 Saturday, March 11 Sunday, March 12 Monday, March 13 … [Read more…]
