Friday, December 6, 2013. Twas the Night before Christmas. There's an event here in D.C. every year called ICE! They create a crazy walk-through ice sculpture event. It's themed. It's cold (9 degrees, hence the sexy blue parka). And I'd never been. But with half-priced tickets, I gave it a shot. I was quite impressed with what they can do with ice. Who ever heard of purple ice? Anyway, this year was 'Twas the Night before Christmas.prepare to be amazed. And because that wasn't enough ICE!

Wednesday, August 20, 2014. I guess it's about time I said some things about my birthday, huh? It's only been like 6 weeks or something. So yeah, I turned 30. And I didn't freak out too much about being single and childless. Cause you know, I was going to Italy. And my life is pretty amazing. The birthday was spent in Acadia, Maine. And there were no fireworks (thanks, hurricane). Here's how things went down. 4 hour flight delay thanks to a hurricane. Happy Birthday to me! I'm sleepy and it's overcast.

Friday, March 14, 2014. Day four was mostly going to be travel. We woke up and had a lovely breakfast and tried to take in as much sun as we could before we had to head to the airport. I will still never get used to people just coming and magically transporting my luggage. Our 7 mile boat ride to the other side of the island was a little choppy. I think it was worse than the tiny plane flight! Gold carts as the main mode of transportation? I could get on board with this. Soaking in the sunshine! Our new ...

Wednesday, February 5, 2014. Vermont/Boston Road Trip Part 2. No vacation of mine is complete without tasting the local brews, so to Long Trail we ventured. We had an awesome waiter who even gave us some free samples. They also serve their samplers in muffin tins! Loved it. Sadly, the best beer we had was not a regular brew. But if you manage to find the Culmination anywhere, get it. Perfect snowy beer. The next day was time for snowboarding! Links to this post. Tuesday, February 4, 2014. Another small g...

Monday, December 9, 2013. So this weekend involved a dead car battery and a lot of time in the kitchen (hello cookie exchange! But none of that stood in the way of getting up to Longwood Gardens again. They have a lovely Christmas display. Who could ever get tired of Christmas trees? Also, I need to learn how to take night pictures with my camera. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. River Under Metal on Kindle! Open Heart Foundation Event.

Thursday, December 26, 2013. Wild Lights at the St. Louis Zoo. On my first evening back in St. Louis I made a point to embarrass my little brothers. We went to the zoo for their light display. My holiday spirit was much higher than theirs. There was singing, Elf quotes, and skipping. Teenage boys do not always appreciate this kind of thing. But it was great. Links to this post.

Monday, February 24, 2014. Snow tubing - Whitetail Resort, PA. What do you do when you get about 20 inches of snow and have your flight canceled and therefore have to postpone vacation for 3 days? You embrace the snow! Also, snowy mountains are just plain pretty. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm a writer and editor currently living in Maryland.
