Like most people, we have been working and staying at home for several weeks now. We’re not on the “let’s get back to normal immediately” plan either so we will continue to self-quarantine for now. Steve and I are both very lucky because we both have jobs that allow us to work from home pretty… Continue reading Future Travel Plans??
Starting the New Year in Santa Barbara We spent New Years in the wine country of Santa Barbara and one last night at the Ritz Carlton Bacara on the beach.

Steve and I started visiting the Virgin Islands in 2005 and instantly fell in love with all of them.

Sometimes I randomly check airfare and hotels in certain destinations just to see what the prices are like and occasionally I find a great deal. I often find better deals during the summer to places that are hot – like Phoenix, Austin, Las Vegas or Palm Springs. Steve and I really weren’t planning to go… Continue reading Last Minute Trips and Vacation Deals
