As always, I want to document and share a little bit about the time I spent at home – my other home, haha! – with my family in April. It’s always such a precious, intense time for me and it usually takes a bit to ‘digest’ and come down from my emotional high when I…
Can you believe I have lived in California for 20 years and I had not been to Muir Woods National Monument? Just don’t ask! I don’t have a good excuse other than sometimes the things that are closest to you are not always on your radar. Well, needless to say, I was so happy that…

Last weekend, Jon and I went down to Southern California to spend some time with Jons family. Jon grew up in Ventura, which – if you’re not familiar – is a beach town between LA and Santa Barbara. We briefly even lived there when we transitioned from LA back to Sacramento and even though it…
Remember when I said that I was keeping a secret? You probably didn’t notice that it was quiet around here for the last couple of weeks. I had prepared a couple of posts to automatically post during my absence (I am not always that prepared, mind you), so you couldn’t know that Jon and…
J and I had talked about an overnight trip for who knows how long. So a couple of weeks ago, we finally just said, enough, let’s go. Since it was going to be a hot weekend in Sacramento, it was a good time to get away. Saturday morning, we headed out to the North Bay…
