Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
The Texas State Fair is almost over but of course we had to visit and try a ridiculous amount of fair food (check out the short video below). We had a ton of fun trying new things and looking at the exhibits, seriously those artisans that enter quilts, handmade clothes, and other art are ridiculously
I really should do a post about all my favorite local bookstores but while I round up that list I did want to tell you about a new bookstore in Dallas: Blush Bookstore. No, this isn’t sponsored but I did stand outside for half an hour in the October heat for their grand opening weekend.
At the start of the football season I had the opportunity to join Keltin on the sidelines for the Tarleton versus Baylor game. Yes, unfortunately Tarleton did loose this game. That being said, the photos came out pretty awesome. I shot these on our Pentax K1000 using black and white Kodak 3200ISO film, shot at

For those that are curious as to the reason for the disruption of my normal posting schedule.Writing Update: The first draft is complete! Holy cow I wrote over 70,000 words for one draft. Truth be told, it is still a bit mind boggling. Is it perfect? Heck no, not at all but my wonderful husband
Hello all, I’ve been quiet on here lately so I thought I’d give you some updates. I have a couple of trips and a video in the works. I’ve been reading a lot. Yes, I am behind on travel posts and book reviews. A lot of that is because I have been working on a
One of our favorite places to hike is the LBJ National Grasslands. This hike got cut short by those storms you see in the distance in the first picture. That being said it was 100% worth it for the wildflowers.
