Come out of the heat and cool off at one of 6 Washington DC waterparks! 6 Washington DC Waterparks #1 The Water Mine Family Swimming Hole The Water Mine Family Swimming Hole is our family favorite! Enjoy water slides for all ages. Toddlers can have fun in the zero entry water play areas and mini slides while big kids (up to about age 12) can have a blast cruising the lazy river and shooting down big kid water slides. I LOVE that I can take my 6, 9, and almost 12 year old children to The Water Mine and everyone has fun! I also love that I can station myself in multiple areas around the water p... read more

I walked for hours most days while living in Pacific Grove, which meant I was able to see many more miles of scenic interests than perhaps a tourist cruising in a car would. A good friend and local turned me onto a loop of about 6 miles that included beach front trails tying Asilomar State Beach and the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail together. Both are well known and well loved by residents and tourists alike. Although my walking path through Asilomar was the same, the view varied daily ranging from sunlit skies to blankets of clouds and fog rolling onto the shore. A unique and sweet t... read more

With Fort Campbell’s convenient location just 45 minutes north of Nashville, it can be easy to focus solely on Music City USA when planning a date night out with your special someone, but with so many hidden gems a little closer to home why not switch up your normal routine to include a night out in Hopkinsville, Kentucky! MB Roland Distillery Whether you’re a bourbon connoisseur or just want to taste a little strawberry moonshine, a trip to MB Roland Distillery makes for a fun (and educational) date for couples over 21. As a “grain to glass” craft distillery, all MB Roland products are handm... read more

I have mentioned before Monterey is spectacularly located near many worthy destinations. From San Diego to Northern California, there are plenty of once in a lifetime opportunities. We were so busy during our stay in Central California that I put the almost obligatory trip to Disneyland at the bottom of our list and said, “if we have time.” As a family, we aren’t Disney enthusiasts. Sure, my six year old daughter loves the princesses. I ask you; can you hear “ Let it Go” too many times? We know the major characters from Disney Jr., but they weren’t her favorites, so you can see why the trip t... read more

With the gorgeous weather, it just makes sense for Pensacola to be an active city. People are always out walking, biking, or just enjoying the sun. There are also many runners in Pensacola, as well as 5K/10K races and half/full marathons. However running is not limited to the athletic. Pensacola running clubs make running fun and enjoyable for people of all athletic abilities. Running clubs are hosted by a different restaurant and/or bar downtown almost every night of the week. People gather, usually around 6pm, to walk, jog, or run a three-mile route through downtown and along the water. Aft... read more
