  • Cruising the Southern Caribbean: the Journey Begins

    We made it back to Florida!!! Okay, okay, something like three months after we left the last time, but whatever. It was snowing when we left Denver, and it doesn’t suck to go somewhere warm. Ever. This time, we’re taking… Continue reading

  • Bishop Castle

    We went camping at Lake Pueblo State Park this spring to get out of the cold in Denver for a long weekend (read that post here). While we were there, we took advantage of how close we were, and we… Continue reading

  • Lake Pueblo Camping

    The bike shop is closed on Easter Sunday. When I realized that (again – somehow I forget EVERY year!), I asked Matt to take an afternoon off so we could go somewhere different. We wanted to go somewhere new, but… Continue reading

  • Wandering Our Hometown

    We don’t always get to go out of town – contrary to popular belief, we DO have jobs and responsibilities here at home… So occasionally we like to have a “tourist in our own town” kind of day where we… Continue reading

  • Snowshoeing!

    Sometimes in the winter, it’s nice to do something besides skiing. Well, I think so anyway. So every once in awhile, I can convince Matt to go snowshoeing with me instead. We decided Brainard Lake was the best place to… Continue reading

    In true Laura fashion, I talked Matt into booking a ski weekend in Steamboat while we were sitting on the couch in my parents’ living room in the warmth of Florida. I knew damned well I was going to need… Continue reading

  • This One’s for the Birds

    …and the alligators… We decided to take a walk on the wild side and check out the wilderness, Florida-style. What does that mean, you ask? Well, it means water. And grass. And cypress trees. And birds. And alligators. Where do… Continue reading

  • Wandering South Beach, Miami, and Palm Beach

    We figured we should really get to some of the “cooler” spots in and around south Florida while we were down there… We may not be the go-out-at-night-and-stay-up-late people, but some places are just cool, regardless of what time of… Continue reading

  • Lighthouses, Manatees, and Cool Beach Rocks!

    The next few days of our trip had slightly less-than-ideal weather… Not bad, just not up to “hanging out on the beach and get in the water” standards. So we found other things to do. Blowing Rocks Nature Preserve has… Continue reading
