The Stones!

We’re in AZ for the rescheduled Rolling Stones concert. Whew, it’s HOT here!! Fortunately we’ve had ample time in the pool and a/c, so we could fully enjoy some quality time with family here in the desert. We’re excited for music with friends tonight and S. Rad is super stoked on seeing the Stones live…

Recent Radventures

Wow, the Pacific Northwest does not disappoint! Views, nature, blooming flowers, water, TREES…it’s quite spectacular. And we’ve been able to get some awesome exploring in. Here’s the highlight reel of one of our recent trips: Sequim, WA (pronounced squim): awesome dry(er) region on the peninsula that is the largest producer of lavender in the U.S….

WA for the summer!

Growing up in the sunshine and warm desert living of Arizona, I don’t think I ever considered Washington state to be a place I may reside. But I also didn’t think I’d marry an adorable guy I’d met in the 5th grade. Never know what the future may hold, right?!? On our trek north from…

El Salvador, here we come!

This pic was from our trip to Belize, which was AMAZING! It was a few years ago, just days after we got engaged. It was a magical trip to say the least! One night we caught a sunset and movie at this fab spot located about a mile north of San Pedro called the Truck…

Albeit juvenile and completely undeveloped, there may be poet potential within me.  Oh,…

Wordy Wednesday

Hump day. Wined down Wednesday. Bored Meetings. Whirlwind. Whew, is it Friday yet? Those are just a few terms/phrases I’ve often used for Wednesdays in my lingo, surprisingly I’ve never thought of “Wordy Wednesday”.  Surprising because (according to S. Rad) I can be very wordy at times, somehow almost synchronizing with when he’s ready to leave and…

Friday Favorites, 2.0

In continuation of my Friday favorites, I’ve found inspiration in my mimosa(s) while sitting at the Joshua Tree Saloon this fine Friday. S. Rad is actively pursuing one of his obsessions with one of his besties out in many piles of rocks, so I decided to take time to myself for a rejuvenating shower and meal…
