Last week we met my husband's brother and sister-in-law for a vacation together. They've only been married for a year and 10 months, and we really wanted to spend some time with them. Kentucky was a good halfway point, as they live in Ohio, so we planned to do a few distillery tours and a …

Visiting Niagara Falls
Our trip to Niagara Falls was amazing. We had a wonderful time exploring the area, walking on Goat Island, and seeing all three waterfalls that make up the Niagara Falls. The largest is Horseshoe Falls, here seen from the American side of the river. I remember reading about Frederick Law Olmstead's role in the park's …

Sunday Chat – Travel, Garden, Patriotic
It has been a whirlwind this past 10 days, as we traveled up to Ohio to be a part of my brother-in-law's wedding. His bride is such a lovely woman, and we already adore her. She was absolutely radiant, in a gorgeous blue lace floor length gown. Honestly, I have never seen my husband's brother …

Adventures in Yellowstone
I imagine you can guess where we've been from this photo. We are back from a wonderful vacation trip to Yellowstone National Park and Glacier National Park. This was my first time to see either park, even to be in that part of the country. I took almost 500 pictures and I'll show you just …
A Tablescapers Dream Store
While we were in Greensboro, I asked DH to take me to the Replacement China store just east of town. I've wanted to visit this store for years. They thoughtfully have provided a lounge area at the back with comfy chairs and a TV, so DH could read his Kindle while I enjoyed the displays. …
Quick Trip to Greensboro
A little over a week ago, we made a quick trip to Greensboro for a car show on Saturday. We drove over Friday so we could have some fun on the way. The first stop was the Greensboro Arboretum. This is a lovely small arboretum and park on a narrow strip of land between a …
