Last summer I went to New Orleans with about 20 other sorority sister from across that country, many I didn’t know. It was the first such trip our sorority held, and it was a blast! Between the span of ages, interests of the group, ability to see whatever we wanted and wonderful location, the trip couldn’t… Continue reading New Orleans Through Photos
There are tons of fun things to do in, and near, the Adirondacks this weekend – and I am so extremely bummed I can’t make it! With the New York metro area expected to get slammed with a massive snow storm and having to work on Sunday, I can’t take a chance of getting snowed… Continue reading Snow, Snow Go Away
Last night some insomnia kicked in and I started flipping through the channels. I was pleasantly surprised to hit on Live Well HD’s program Motion, because it was all about Lake Placid – one of my favorite places in the Adirondacks! (and because the show’s host has my dream job!) I watch as host Greg Aiello kayaked… Continue reading Lake Placid on Live Well HD
Over the weekend, I checked out the 2009 Harvest Fest at Gore Mountain in the Adirondacks. The festival was fun, but the main attraction ended up being the $13 Northwoods Gondola ride my dog and I took up the mountain. With the trees in their fall peak, the views were stunning — and we were… Continue reading Fall at Gore Mountain

Another one of my favorite places to go in the Adirondacks is The Sagamore – a beautiful island resort that literally has everything you could want in a Lake George vacation. (more on that in a future blog) Luckily, The Sagamore opens its doors to non-resort guests, so they can appreciate the amazing views, gourmet food… Continue reading Mr. Brown’s Pub at The Sagamore
Some of the best views of Lake George are just a short drive up Veterans Memorial Highway to the top of Prospect Mountain. They say on a clear day visitors have a 100-mile view. For those of you not familiar with the area, you’d be able to see well past Albany, N.Y. Prospect Mountain is… Continue reading Prospect Mountain
Two months ago I visited New Orleans for the first time, and while there I picked up some art in Jackson Square. Knowing my love for buying local, this was right up my ally. For those of you not familiar with the area, Jackson Square is located in the French Quarter and is surrounded by historical buildings, the Saint Louis… Continue reading Jackson Square in NOLA
I love to travel, but don’t get to do it nearly as much as I would like. One of my favorite places to go is Las Vegas, just for the fact there are so many things to do there – including stuff away from the glimmer of the strip. And, you can find some pretty… Continue reading Las Vegas
