Travel Goals – Colorado
With my departure date quickly approaching, I decided I’m going to switch things up a little bit. Instead of immediately heading to my first destination state (New Mexico), I think I’m going to have a soft start here in my home state of Colorado. This will help me get my feet wet and also serve…

Crystal Beach is Calling
I haven’t talked about Texas yet, mostly because it is one of the last-leg states. As the days go by, though, I can’t seem to get Crystal Beach, TX out of my head! I’ve been there once before. It was the first time I’d seen the ocean. I had no idea what to expect and…

Travel Goals – Oregon
Let me preface this by saying looking up anything in Oregon looks like an absolute fairy tale. For as long as I can remember, Oregon was somewhere I wanted to go. It seems so magical. Before I was born, my parents took a vacation to the Oregon coast. I remember looking at those pictures in…

Travel Goals – Montana
I had so much fun looking into where to go and what to do once I head into Big Sky Country. The scenery is gorgeous and there is no shortage of adventuring to be had. I hadn’t given much thought to Montana specifically, so it was a treat to virtually explore. Its the 4th largest…

Travel Goals – California
I’ve been to California before. Three times, actually. Not for very long and not for very far, but the San Diego area is lovely. I took a January dip in the Pacific (very cold as you’d expect, but absolutely necessary). I’ve seen whales and dolphins off the coast. Laguna beach was absolutely stunning. I’ve driven…

Travel Goals – Arizona
I’ve been to Arizona the least of all the southwestern states. I’m really excited to go back and actually spend any length of time. Now, I know the Grand Canyon is a huge draw and I’ll go back (I’ve been once, briefly), but I’m actually super excited to see the Saguaros at Saguaro National Park.…

Travel Goals – New Mexico
The fun thing about the American Southwest is that I’ve been there. Not “been there, done that” been there, but I’ve spent time enough in each state that going back I get to get more in depth in my exploration. I’ve been to New Mexico more than any other state outside of my home state…

LuLu’s Test Drive
I can’t believe I never told the story of LuLu’s test drive – especially with how we got her home, it seemed maybe it was doomed from the start! I’ll let you decide what you think. Personally, I think the universe was looking after me. It was my niece who found LuLu for me. Then,…

Travel Goals – Back to Utah
Let me preface this with saying I am so excited to go back to Utah! Making this list was actually pretty hard. Utah is the first state I’m planning to visit (spoiler alert: hopefully in February). The American Southwest is ripe with National Parks and Monuments so trying to parse out those so I have…

Travel Goals – Vermont
Maybe I’ll go to see the changing leaves in Vermont and I’ll leave with a husband. That’s how that works right? It doesn’t have to be Christmas to find a husband, does it? I’m going to be honest when I say that in my head, I essentially clump all of those northern states together. Maine,…
