Losing My Breath at the Grand Canyon, AZ

Our Fun Staycation Weekend

My family and I are huge fans of staycations. They encourage us to still go out and discover something new together closer to home. Toyota contacted me recently and asked me to check out their 2014 Highlander for a few days. Of course, testing out cars means wee[...]

Getting to Know The Lake Tahoe Region

"Lake Tahoe is not a town, it's a region in both the states of CA and NV." This was one of the first lessons I learned upon arriving to the area as a guest of the Squaw Creek Resort. Like most people, I didn't really understand the geography of the area and, like[...]

I’m a little late to the game, but finally made I’m a little late to the game, but finally made it to @scalehousebrews in Hector, NY, which was serving up some delicious @overlookcoffeecompany (Burdett, NY) drip…and ya, girl had to go support her besties ✨

The coffee? Amazing of course, but Scale House brew also delish, and I was really impressed with their pizza. So if ya know, ya know. If you don’t, get over there stat. I heard it’s pretty busy during the summer months!

And make sure to stop into Overlook Coffee too. They are 😘👌🏾.

Sometimes I find country living too different and Sometimes I find country living too different and unsuitable. But then I have days that exhaust me. Or I am riddled with anxiety and uncertainty - a common theme for me as of late. Or just need to clear my head. Then I find the country to be the best medicine. Maybe it’s the crisp cold air. Or the soothing of the rushing glen. Or the sound of the ravens nesting nearby. Or the soft, cushy moss under my feet. Whatever it is, I am so grateful even when it all feels so unsure. I know this is pretty lucky.

After the rain, this is the sound as the sun sets: After the rain, this is the sound as the sun sets: the song of what seems to be a thousand peepers and the water rushing from the glen down the 100 foot waterfall right in front of our little country cottage. 

As much as I still love the noise of my NYC, this wasn’t a bad trade off. ❤️
