The Kid’s Campus at Metropolitan Park is set right next to the water and both the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Jacksonville Suns stadiums. The Kid’s Campus is a great place to bring the kids to help them burn off some energy. In the summertime, the park has a fantastic splash pad where the kids can [...]

We had decided to [...]

These huge turtles are part of a fundraising program that helped to benefit Child Guidance Center. These colorful turtles are painted by artists and are absolutely beautiful. When we are traveling, my [...]

Do you remember that movie Groundhog Day with Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell? The one where he keeps waking up each morning just to repeat the same day over and over again? I make the drive from Pensacola to Jacksonville, Florida two or three times a year and every time I make the drive I [...]

A few weeks ago, I took my two children on a short solo road trip to Jacksonville, Florida. Tallahassee is the perfect spot for a bathroom and stretch break. It is about half way to Jacksonville and there are plenty of gas stations and places to eat. Unfortunately, whenever we make this drive we always make [...]
