My Great Adventure

When I look back over the past few months, I am amazed at how fast the summer flew by and how many great adventures I had and how many memories I created. The fact that I had been saving for three years to travel to London probably had a lot to do with it, but […]

My Perfect Cruise Vacation

When I went on my Caribbean cruise, I had the best time of my life. It was so perfect from the weather to the port stops to the shopping. You can’t beat the weather there because it’s hot and when you spend half of the year shoveling snow, nothing compares to sitting on a pure […]

My First Solo Business Trip

I was taking my first business trip all by myself and I was extremely nervous. I worried about little things, like getting from the airport to the hotel and that kind of thing. My husband told me that if it would help, I should arrange all of the little details before I go. I told […]

My wife and I took a trip last month to Las Vegas.  We stayed at the Excalibur Hotel Las Vegas and it was a dream come true for me.  The rates were unbelievable and the entertainment was phenomenal.  I have always been very interested in medieval times and was excited as a kid at Christmas […]
