Ft. Worth Bound!
Ah, the yearly pilgrimage to Ft. Worth, Texas. Every year is different, obviously. This year as I was playing on Facebook during the 7 hour drive I saw where you ask Siri “What are you doing for Christmas?” This was her answer. If you play in Snapchat any at all I’m sure that you’ve seen…

Underwater Pumpkin Carving
I typically get sick twice a year… this year I think I’m at 3 times. Blech! I’m so over this! Anyway… A couple weekends ago we had our annual Underwater pumpkin carving.

Bacon, eggs, pancakes, fruit, birthday cake. Yes, I said Birthday cake although we didn’t really eat that until…

Mermet Springs 2016
There’s a story, of a trip to Mermet… oh wait, that was last year’s theme song. There actually wasn’t a theme song this year… more of a quote… but I’m not putting that out there! It’s the yearly trek to Mermet Springs over in Metropolis Illinois. Last year on our way we found an Italian…

What to do in Paducah, Kentucky Every Other Thursday during the Summer
After we ate dinner at the Italian Grill on Broadway, we decided to wander down the street and see what this part of Paducah had to offer. Our final destination was the Ohio River (about 8 blocks or less). The history of Paducah caught my attention.
