When we were on our big road trip this summer, we were surprised at all of the beautiful flowers we saw all over the interstates in North Carolina.  The flowers are everywhere and are an amazing array of colors against your typical green surroundings.  Every corner we turned, my daughter would shout out which color [...]

Pensacola to Panama City Beach via Hwy 98

When people find out I live in Pensacola, Florida, they usually call me right before their Disneyworld trip and ask if we want to meet for dinner. They don’t realize that it is a 6 hour drive and most of the time, they are not interested in adding the Panhandle to their itinerary. [...]

The tablecloth makes the roadside picnic!
