In December, my husband and I traveled to Charleston for a short getaway. It was our first trip to Charleston during the holiday season and it was absolutely amazing. While there, we visited the Charleston Tea Plantation, stopped by the Firefly Distillery, enjoyed visiting Magnolia Plantation and all of its fabulous animals and made our first […]

Back in October, my husband and I finally made it to Skyline Drive during the peak foliage week. It was very busy, but so beautiful. There’s just something about mountains, blue skies and white clouds. If you get the chance to check it out, you should. It’s worth it.

Do you ever have that one place, somewhere you feel like you were meant to be? Charleston, SC is that place for me. It’s warm, it’s southern and it’s amazing in every way that a place should be. I was fortunate enough to visit twice this year, once after my husband and I’s Western Caribbean […]

Earlier this fall, my husband and I took a cruise to the Western Caribbean. We visited Cozumel and Mahual (Costa Maya) in Mexico, Belize and Isla Roatan in Honduras. We had an absolutely amazing time relaxing on private beaches, meeting crazy animals and touring new places. These are just a few of the more than […]

No sooner than I got back from the beach, it was time to head to the fair. I actually ended up going twice because I had free tickets. I only snapped a few quick photos, but you can’t have summer without the fair.  

In July, Ron and I took our annual week long beach trip with his family. Really, when I say family, I mean extended family so think approximately 30 people in one beach house. It’s always a great time, if not somewhat overwhelming for someone like myself who grew up in a four person household. It helps that […]

In April, my husband and I traveled to Emerald Isle, North Carolina. It was our first time traveling to the area and we made sure to experience it all. From Emerald Isle to Beaufort to Cape Lookout, we spent a long weekend immersing ourselves in all the area has to offer. The Beaufort boardwalk is […]

When my husband and I went to the National Zoo in March, we took a side trip to the Tidal Basin to see the  cherry blossom trees. I’ve wanted to go every year for years, but we never made it until this year. Because of the unusually warm spring weather, the trees bloomed early and […]

In March, my husband and I spent a day at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. The weather was unusually warm for early spring and the animals were ready to play. We had a great time and I got some great shots. Dinner anyone?  I absolutely love this duck. He was great!

I’ve decided that since I’ve been taking photos forever that I should find a way to showcase some of the oldies, but goodies so welcome to the first “Flashback Friday” post. With the current warm temperatures we’ve been having, all I can think about is summer. I’m a summer person by nature (I am an […]
