Who loved the 1980’s classic theatrical gem National Lampoon’s “Vacation”? Sweet Boy and I recently hit the Holiday Rooooooad! We were on a quest to go to see dear friends and visit Legoland during his fall break. The boy LOVES his lego’s and was beyond excited. Remember the scene when Clark finally ends his horribly disastrous drive across the country only to discover that Wally World was closed? It’s really not so funny when it happens in real life and you have a tearful 10-year-old ... View the Post
Wayfaring Wednesday 1000 Islands
The 1000 Islands recently made it onto my bucket list when my cousin in love, T, called me and said “Gotta place for you to go.” Now she knows me well.

Wayfaring Wednesday Cool Cozumel
I am trying to think cool thoughts while the thermometer explodes. Given that I still have my hands full while Sweet Boy recovers from his recent surgery I decided to repost this oldie but goodie. It originally was featured in March of 2008 where it was viewed by a whopping 1 person. Here is Wayfaring Wednesday Cool Cozumel. Mr. Décor and I had not had an ALONE vacation in over 10 years.

Wayfaring Wednesday
Two weeks ago my family and I took a trip to Vallecito Lake in Colorado. This man made reservoir is 23 miles Northeast of Durango and somehow remains lovely and unspoiled in this day and age. I thought it might be nice to kick off a summer travel series. Wayfaring Wednesday. Wayfaring Wednesday The San Juan National Forest area offers several lovely campground areas.
