Top 4 Best Spring Break Beaches
Well, we are in our home stretch! Spring is almost here, and to be quite honest, this winter wasn’t even that bad (I think I may be scarred for life from the Polar Vortexes we had a few years back). You may have noticed that I have been posting quite a few beach pictures over on my Instagram lately, just to get in the mood. So, let’s talk Spring Break Beaches. Specifically, let’s look at 4 super doable beach vacations. No 8-hour flights for our crew this year! *Please note that this post contains affiliate links, meaning that, at no cost to you, I may receive some compensation… Thank you!

Friday Finds on Mackinaw Road: Tacos, Shopping, Bloody Mary’s, and Barre
Welcome back to my randomness… with Friday Finds, Take 2….Hope you all had a great week! We made it to almost-Friady. Yay! And I made it through February without a broken bone- double Yay! Our only February hick-up was that our dog ate sand at the beach and had to spend the night at the Emergency Animal Hospital. Fortunately, he is back to his crazy, jumping, kissing 10-year old self.

Decorating with Travel Trinkets
Full disclosure (again): just the word “trinket” makes me cringe. And, yet we find ourselves tempted to buy souvenirs or street art all the time. Luckily, my inner voice often stops us. That said, we have found ourselves in possession of said trinkets because they do remind us of a fabulous beach vacation or a memorable experience. Here is how we have decorated with them…

Travel Gift Guide by Mackinaw Road
I do not like February. Despite it being my birthday month and housing Valentine’s Day, it is just not my month. Last year, I was determined to make it my month, went out for a run, and returned with a broken jaw. So, March wasn’t really my month either. I’m on to a new strategy for this February. Lay low. While I’m “laying low”, I’ve had some time to come up with a Valentine’s Day wish list for the traveler in your life/me. **This post contains affiliate links, meaning that, at no cost to you, I may receive some compensation..

Island Travel Interviews- Caribbean, Take I
Island Travel is one of my favorite kinds of travel. There are so many activities, beautiful sights, and pretty drinks… and the pure relaxation… I have my favorite, first choice, don’t-have-to-ask-me twice island, but I thought it would be fun to ask some other travel bloggers about some of the islands they have traveled to. Get ready to be amazed! (Every week I will feature 2-3 Travel Bloggers sharing their island experiences.)

Top 5 Posts of 2016
Since I love a good countdown and have been seeing quite a few Top 5 Posts of 2016, I thought it might be entertaining (and, admittedly, a bit self-indulgent) to look back, too, especially because I’m grounded until March. (Have a mentioned that? Ha!) Granted, the statistics are from a whole 3 months, but still… Here we go…

24 Hours in West Michigan
Someone recently posed the question… What would you do in your city if it was your last 24 hours there? Good question. First, I would cry… because I really do love where I live. Second, I would be all over West Michigan because it would be too difficult to stay in one city, and, with the ease of travel here, why not? Third, how has this not been a dinner conversation topic before? Move over crazy toddler stories, there’s a new topic in town.
