August 24, 2010 By 5 Comments
Tweet While visiting the Garden of Gods in Colorado Springs, a friend informed me there was also a Garden of the Gods on the Hawaiian island of Lanai. Curious, I had to look into how it is that the two natural wonder parks would share the same name, while an ocean apart. They are both [...]

Tweet We are so fortunate as to have so much beauty right here in our backyard. Our recent 4-day weekend in Colorado Springs wouldn’t have been complete without a visit to 5-star hotel, The Broadmoor, home of the 2011 Women’s U.S. Open. We’re not golfers, but we could still enjoy the impeccably manicured grounds and [...]

Tweet I’ll never be SuperMom, but that doesn’t mean I can’t try and have it all. If there’s anything that turning 40 and watching your 39-year-old husband battle cancer teaches you, it’s that thinking you’ll always have later to live the life you really want is foolhardiness. Later is NOW and I’d rather not be [...]

Tweet Do you ever feel like just when the prize is within reach, someone changes the game? I imagined that’s how my husband felt, though he did his best to hide his disappointment yesterday when what was supposed to be his first day back in the cockpit since February 21st, 2008, didn’t actually happen. Danny [...]

Tweet Part of Perfect Moment Mondays… The only “fun parks” we had growing up in Arizona were water slides. There was only one amusement park in the entire state – Legend City in Phoenix. And anytime we happened to be visiting Phoenix, a 3-hour drive from Lake Havasu City where I grew up, it always [...]
