If This Tree Could Talk

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 411

If only this tree could talk. What would it say? What has it seen over all the years that it has graced this property? . Located on a little street in Shalotte, North Carolina, this tree has probably been photographed a million times at least. Continue reading →

Assateague Lighthouse

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 435

One of our favorite things to seek out on beach themed vacations are lighthouses. They are one of my favorite things and I have visited more lighthouses over the years in various places than I can even remember. Our recent trip to Virginia was filled Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Photography, Travel/ 4 Comments/ 451

Chris and I had hoped to see the wild ponies that are on Assateague Island in Virginia. They are often called Chincoteague ponies but they actually live on Assateague Island and our visit in September was geared toward seeing them. According to their information on Continue reading →

Was This Only Last Month?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 12 Comments/ 346

I do NOT know where the past 6 weeks have gone. I really don’t. In a blink of an eye here we are in the middle of October. I have been slack here posting on the blog but that’s okay – I have been busy Continue reading →

We Ain’t Got Moxy

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 7 Comments/ 499

It all started off badly with an elevator in the parking garage that did not work. We schlepped our suitcases down from the 5th level. Fortunately we only had one small suitcase each and a backpack or briefcase but whew. It was a workout. We Continue reading →

We are spending this week in my happy place, Lakeside, Ohio. Of course I have shared my love of everything Lakeside many times over the years and nothing really changes but it is still the best week of the year for me when my siblings Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 420

One of the things that we wanted to do with Theo when we went to Nova Scotia was to visit the Bay of Fundy and walk on the ocean floor. We went to Burntcoat Head Park where the highest tidal change ever was recorded at Continue reading →

Clear as Day

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 386

Sometimes I really wonder about myself. Let me rephrase that. Lots of times I worry about myself. The rental house we stayed in in Nova Scotia was unique. It was the winner of a big architectural award when it was built in the 1990’s and Continue reading →

The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
