Life isn’t all ladybugs and cookies, it’s tough but with travel all things seems better some how. History is what defines us and whatever you’re into it came to fruition due to some sort of someone, somewhere, traveling. Life is short and then you’re...
Trying to survive in this day and age as a one income family leave little left for travel. Expedia has been a life saver for hotel bookings when we DO get a chance to get away. Easy to search, easy to book, easy to save and I’ve earned money off of f...

Always looking for a decently clean place with a pool and continental breakfast. Check, check and CHECK! The rooms were clean, the pool is open 24 hrs which is wild but with 3 kids helpful and the breakfast had so many options. My fav was the biscuit...

Safe are super friendly. Breakfast was good.

Grand Canyon. To say it took my breath away was an understatement. I ALSO was paranoid walking around with my kids haha. But we all survived and even made it to our car before the big down pour. Of course we bring rain with us where ever we go. Good ...

Any place on Route 66 is iconic. I personally love all the old artifacts and neon lights. A must see…especially around the warmer parts.
Travel Route 66 (U.S. National Park Service)
A must must MUST SEE little family owned business. Go and have your mileage sign made!! There is so much history in one little building. And the owners have so many fun stories and are thee nicest. 100% recommend.
Jack Rabbit Trading Post
Fun little attraction that they’ve really taken advantage of merch wise. They have a portable trailer just outside of where the cars are. You can buy magnets, shirts, cups and more. But most importantly spray paint in numerous colors. Garbage cans pr...
Cadillac Ranch
If you can’t make it to Cadillac Ranch then Bug Ranch is just as great. And less crowded. We were the only ones there on this day. (Pictures are mine) and we coincidentally found someone had spray painted our last name and long with the year. So fun ...
Slug Bug Ranch
Bahia Hotel and Beach house has been a travel sight for my family since the late 90’s until now. A lot has changed since back in the day but it’s still a fun and relaxing place to visit. What sets the Bahia apart from other hotels is if you’re going ...
Bahia Hotel & Beach House
Ohhhh my daiquiri!!!!! I’m from Washington State and they don’t have this option here,I WISH!!!!! When we visited family in Ponchatoula Louisiana we popped over to Hammond and picked up a Sour Patch Daiquiri and Strawberry Starburst Daiquiri. I 100% ...

NOLA, NOLA, NOLA…I can’t say enough good things about visiting here. The history or the oldest cemetery to the brassy music and vibes. It’s beautiful and haunting all wrapped in one.

Carpinito Bros Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze
If you’re ever driving through Wyoming…honestly a lot of flat land and not a lot to look at. Add in no cell service which means hot spot for the kids tablets and wheeew party!!
However when ever we’re traveling in the area we ALWAYS stop at the Lit...
Little America Travel Center
Another odd thing to see on the side of the road…a HUGE HEAD. Growing up I was NEVER in to history but as I’ve gotten older it’s interesting to read about places while on the road. We’ve stopped here a couple of times now and it’s actually quite peac...
Lincoln Monument on I-80 Chosen as Roadside America's Sight of the Week
“The mountains out” if you’re a PNW’r than you’ve ether said it or heard it said a time or two. She’s big, she’s beautiful and apparently dangerous. I guess being a big active volcano makes you a hot mess. If you get a chance though seeing Mt. Rainie...
Mount Rainier National Park
A few years back my husband and I stayed at an Air BnB in Lincoln City Oregon for our annv and it was beautiful. The beach was beautiful, the little town was so relaxing. I high recommend it. If you can’t get a stay at the other more well known beach...
