Losing My Breath at the Grand Canyon, AZ

The immensity and spectacle of colors seen at the Grand Canyon is something most of us have heard about, but few of us can really explain in a way that would do justice to what it is like to actually being there. During the Whiskey Sister HERstory Tour, we got[...]

When spring arrives New Yorkers find new life. It can be a bit cold at the start however, and the balance between enjoying the outdoors and staying warm can be tricky. Our favorite spot to take it all in: The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met). We had a few Cit[...]

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[...]

Fall Road Trip to Lake Placid

Riding High in Barcelona, Spain

Lack of sleep is an incredible thing. Go too long and it can be quite dangerous, but hang on to it for those beginning side effects and the world is a pretty interesting place. My teen and I arrived to Barcelona a day before our cruise with the Carnival Sunshine wa[...]

Spending the next couple of days on assignment in Spending the next couple of days on assignment in Rochester, which always feels like such a special treat - to be able to work in a city I love being in so much. Excited for all the good coffee and favorite eateries I will try to fit in as much as possible while here. Such a great city.
An afternoon in the Finger Lakes National Forest, An afternoon in the Finger Lakes National Forest, New York State’s only national forest, which spans over 16,000 acres. The trail takes you through forests, gorges, and pastures, some still crazed by cattle. The camping is rustic and space is available at first-come, first-served. And winter is filled with activities such as cross-country skiing and snowmobiling, while the warmer months welcomes horseback riding, mountain biking, and hiking. 🌳

One of the many gems of the Finger Lakes.
Today is all about celebrating my partner in life, Today is all about celebrating my partner in life, in love, in work, in all the things on his birthday. Few couples could do as much as we do together, experiencing the rollercoaster of life as we have, and still remain so madly in love and committed to each other and I will be the first to admit that this is in great part due to Travis’ kind, loving, and patient 😅 approach. Not just as a partner but as a father and as a friend. We LOVE Travis and are grateful for every day we get to do so. 

He deserves the whole world and all the goodness it can gift him. So we try our best, because we are so happy to call him ours. Happy birthday, my wonderful man. Te amo. ❤️

Josie update: her most recent vet visit was stella Josie update: her most recent vet visit was stellar. She’s healthy and happy and has gained 5 whole pounds, which is great because she came to us a little underweight probably from stress. 

She is a huge fan of cuddles and likes to start calming things down around 9PM - seriously, she INSISTS. She’s a big fan of sneakers, which has really encouraged everyone to not leave theirs just laying around (thanks, Josie)! She is a quick learner, quicker if treats are involved and an absolute sweetheart with other pups. 

She’s a big fan of pup cups, car rides, and long walks in the park, but not of lakes, motorcycles, or crickets. 😂

And we love her a billion.
