We recently had the opportunity to visit Birmingham, Alabama for a day trip, and man, are we glad we did! We only visited 3 places, but all 3 were absolutely fantastic! 1. McWane Science Center Our first stop was the McWane Science Center. We have a reciprocal museum membership for this museum which means …
The GRAND Tetons. WOW. You drive into the park and the mountains are breathtaking. You feel like you are driving in a valley with Huge Mountains on one side and gorgeous “hills” on the other. We stayed at Gros Ventre Campground. It was an experience! My parents went down early on a Friday morning and …
When we were in Ithaca, New York visiting Craig’s cousin she brought us to an Adventure Playground – Anarchy Zone. She had no idea how much I had wanted to visit one since reading an article about one in Europe. It was just as cool as I thought it would be! Let me explain what …
