Yay. I am so excited. This May, B and I are going to travel to London!
I am so excited. I went with Bethel 3 years ago. Ever since I left, I have wanted to go back.
And we may do a day trip to Paris. Who wouldn’t want that?
The other really cool, new thing we are trying out is AirBNB. We are staying in a small flat in Waterloo. This should be a wonderful time.
Have you been to London? What are some recommendation?
After a long drive from Michigan, we are home. We spent this weekend in northern Michigan hanging out with Breon’s mom, Linda and her boyfriend, Bob plus we checked out the 2013 SnoDrift rally. (A quick note– all photos taken with my iPhone [cool, right?])
We drove from Ocqueoc (where Breon’s mom lives) to Lewiston where they were hosting service and parc expose. We walked around looking at beautiful, masterpieces of rally cars in the frigid temperatures. It was so much fun to be back at the rally scene. We ran into Rob, the rally store crew, and a few other Minnesotans!
We hopped back in the truck after warming up with a cheeseburger and hot cocoa (don’t judge) to go out to the stage (race course, for you rally newbies out there). After scoring a good spot behind the almighty caution tape, we relaxed in the 11 degree weather with our awesome handwarmers. We got to see a bunch of awesome cars at our corner of the road but were sad not to see our favorite, Ken Block come through because of electrical failure [sad face]. We packed it up (as most of us were cold) and headed home to a delicious pizza dinner at a local bar.
went to RadioShack and a few other places “in town” (Rogers City- which is gorgeous in the summer). We had breakfast and enjoyed a relaxing day around the house. I had some hip issues so I remained sitting the most of the day (meh). But it was fun to just relax and hang out with B’s family. We watched comedy and some movies and just had a good ‘ol time!
We left this morning and drove with little to no problems until after our lunch stop at about 1 or 2. We ended up driving into a snow/rain/sleet mix. That was fun. It took us extra time to get home and it was not ideal driving conditions. But guess who powered through like a champ? Not me! HAHAHA (oh you)! Breon was the rock star. He drove through this crap like it was no big deal…in a Ford Fiesta! He showed them who the real rally driver was. I guess he got his own little SnoDrift in this weekend!
Well that’s all folks!
Let me know in the comments below!
After spending three days non-stop with the Anytime Fitness conference, I really just wanted to relax and walk around Chicago. I am not going to lie to you, I got bored. When you are all alone and don’t have any plans well it’s easy to just think “I’m bored…someone entertain me…”
So I walked.
And shopped.
And looked.
Then I stumbled upon this cute shop, POSH, in a book at Anthropologie.
Upon walking in, I wished I could live in this litle shop. There was Frank Sinatra crooning while you look at antique like objects that made you feel like you were back in the 1940s or something. I was just totally in love with the look and feel of the place.
I highly recommend checking it out the next time you are in Chicago! You won’t be disappointed.
