If you have never had the opportunity to fly across the ocean then I both feel sorry for you and I envy you. I love traveling and taking vacations, especially when it means going to someplace that is really far away, but the flight is a real killer. I don...

I have to tell you, San Francisco has to be one of my all time favorite places. I LOVE it! We have had the opportunity to visit there twice in the past 2 years and I would go again in a heartbeat.
Our first visit we stayed in the Union Square District...

After truly leaving my heart in San Francisco, we visited again a year and a half later. This time we opted to stay right on Fisherman's Wharf. This we found to be just as, if not even more, enjoyable as staying on Union Square.
We booked through the...

I'm not a big history buff, but I have found a town full of history that I recommend that everyone visit at least once in their lives. This town is Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. It is a town rich in civil war history that is full of historic buildings. ...

Most people think that a vacation has to be a week or more. I say NOT SO! Some of my husband's and my favorite vacations have been shall we say, "short and very sweet".

We have always had a love / hate relationship with out cars. They get us where we want to go and at the same time they sometimes leave us sit where we don't want to be. It's hard enough to get through the "car stress" that most of us face with the rising ...
