A Weekend in Los Angeles with My Son Christopher

I just returned from a fun weekend in Los Angeles visiting my son Christopher at his new home closer to the beach. He has done a great job designing his space (no idea where he got that gene!) so we just needed a few items to get him settled.

Seven Great Stops on Your Next Vacay in NYC!

Wow! We just got home from a long weekend in New York City and what a great way to take on the big apple. It was high energy, great weather, fun people, and a whole new agenda from the last time we visited. On previous visits, we were most often in Midtown, taking in museums, the theater, great shopping, and incredible eats in the heart of the city. But this time we switched it up and I am so happy we did! Being that our time was limited, we took on one or two new destinations as well as enjoying a few of our NYC favorites. There's so much to do in this city – we just enjoyed what we could knowing that we would be back! So, if your travel plans have you heading to the City that Never Sleeps, then I strongly suggest you add one of these new or old favorites to your agenda – each one is a great destination. Take a look at these seven great stops on your next vacay to NYC!
