Woof, sorry you all, life caught up with me a little bit and I haven’t been able to update the site as I hoped. When last we left, we had gotten through the initial ticket/security lines and were getting into the parks. We started our visit at Hollywood Studios and finished our weekend away at […]

On the road to see the mouse, part 1.
Ok, so this post is hard to write for you all on multiple fronts. First, we did not share widely even with those close to us that we were doing this because we have seen a lot of judging going on about people taking trips or venturing out in this era of managing the ramifications of […]
Touching down in the land of the Delta Blues..
Well, I think as you have probably gathered this is not my “day job” so to speak (at least not yet anyway! (*lol*). With that, my apologies that I am a bit later than normal on my post this go around. I hope you won’t hold that against me and what we are trying to […]
An Appalachian high, and a Tennessee one, and a shopping one and many more.
Everyone has heard of the area’s arguably most favorite citizen, Dolly Parton, but one of the travel spots that I would argue has literally the most all purpose options is the Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gaitlinburg, Tennessee area. There are opportunities for couples, for singles, for families, for kids, for weekends or extended stays with your friend(s). What […]
Services of the travel world, questions from the field.
I am often asked many questions about travel, travel services, and other elements of the industry.

The straight up, outright answer is that I believe it depends on several […]

It is complete human nature to want to remember the best things about the best places. We are certainly not […]
Peaceful, easy feeling…and a lot of cardio to boot..
Ok, no secret, there are a lot of untapped treasures in our country as placed to go and things to do. One of the things we have highlighted here before, and we want to share another one, is our state park system. We had the good fortune to experience one of Arkansas’ gems not too […]
We are back!
Took us a bit longer than anticipated, but I will tell you, working on sites like this you tend to learn something more everyday. As we sought to rebuild a couple of different elements for the site we found a number of issues that we needed to address. Amongst things are mail list sign up […]
Quick website and social media repair hiatus
Hi friends, We are going to take a brief (likely about a week) hiatus to do some website repair needs we were made aware of this past weekend in addition to some social media repair work as well. We’ll return as quickly as we can with more possibilities for you as we look at travel […]
I can do what at a State Park?
Right now, many of us are considering the value of a vacation that keeps us out of the mainstream, away from people and really just helps us get out of the house. We are exactly the same way. As we considered what we wanted to do this summer, we kept coming back to something we […]
