Things change. I know, I know–let the eye rolling begin. However, I am only mentioning this because for my 30th birthday I received the book 1000 Places to See Before You Die. In the USA chapters, it lists International Falls, MN as one of these places. I have been dropping hints to April left, right, … Continue reading International Falls
You always travel with your passport, right? Of course, I keep it with me all the time–because you never know when you might have to leave the country quickly. I thought so, but I wanted to double check…and well, remind you to bring your passport. Like for Birthday Trip #1, my only requests for Birthday … Continue reading Have Passport, Will Roadtrip.
In trying to find pictures for Throwback Thursday, I realized I have a lot of pictures of adult beverages (that is said with pride, by the way).

Yesterday started my birthday week. By that, I don’t mean it’s the week of my birthday, but rather: starting yesterday, I have at least one birthday a day until the end of the month (and yes, I know it’s technically 8 days, but channel your inner Beatles and work with me here people!). The only … Continue reading Birthdays Galore!
