A quick winter getaway, complete with hiking, food, beer, and all the views!
When it came to picking a destination for our summer vacation, we wanted something a little bit different, we also wanted some damn good food. So we made a fine choice for what would be an epic trip to New Orleans! After landing and getting settled, we set out to grab dinner and get a…
This year’s quick Fall vacation destination was the Finger Lakes, particularly Penn Yan, New York, for some hiking, sightseeing, brewery and winery tasting, and some rest & relaxation. As the leaves were well into their changing for the season, it still made for wonderful views and hiking. The old remnants of mills from the area,…
The next lighthouse on our tour, took us to Atlantic City, where the Absecon Lighthouse stands at 171 feet tall, the tallest lighthouse in New Jersey, third-tallest masonry lighthouse in the United States! Atop the lighthouse, after a 228 step climb, you can meet Buddy, who will happily discuss the history of the lighthouse. Here…
On a quest to visit the local lighthouses, we found ourselves at Sandy Hook Guardian Park near Fort Hancock to visit the Sandy Hook Lighthouse. While here, we drove through and checked out the Proving Grounds and Nine Gun Battery, all amazing sights to see and highly recommended to visit yourself if you have not!…
Lovely morning to do some walking. Breezy low 80s and lots of sun. Made a trek around most of the park and took in the sights!
In an effort to get out more and just walk around some, we headed to Asbury Park to enjoy the boardwalk and Friday night bonfire on the beach. We left just before the rain started. When the rain stopped next day, the air was humid and damp, we took a walk with Zoey around the…
An empty boardwalk is not an everyday sight in Asbury Park. With this kind of beautiful weather, it’s even more rare, and I could not pass up the opportunity to share this view with the world. Everywhere you turn, there’s all of the bits and pieces that make this place the destination for all beach-goers.…
A snap decision to venture off for a few days, led me to the crisp air and beautiful colored, leafy sites of Bar Harbor, Maine. I didn’t get to stay on the island, but driving around during the day, I realized the tourism here is real, and with the amount of people buzzing around all…
This year’s 4th of July fireworks were enjoyed at Thompson Park in Monroe Township, NJ. Enjoyable music, food trucks, and overall a really good time! Nightfall is go time. Set up a tripod, grab the shutter remote, and shoot 5-10 second exposures for those beautiful light shows!
Living in Asbury Park for a year, just a few blocks from the beach, brought us back in 2016. The area, as it develops, brought many great places to eat and things to do like the local Beerfest at Convention Hall, or all the bands playing on a regular basis at The Stone Pony. The…
My first Disney Trip, at 31 years old. To say this place is only for kids and you won’t enjoy it as an adult, is incredibly wrong. Driving down was an adventure in itself. It was nice having a car when we needed to get around, or get to Animal Kingdom before the park opens,…
