Rocks and Memories in Lakeside

Beth Ann Chiles/ Crafting, Travel/ 15 Comments/ 1334

One of the favorite pastimes in Lakeside, Ohio the past few years has been rock painting. As a kid I loved to climb the rocks along the shore line but those rocks are not what I am talking about. Those rocks are boulders and not Continue reading →

Brunch at The Inn at Brevard

Beth Ann Chiles/ Restaurants, Travel/ 9 Comments/ 847

Sometimes you just have to try a place for yourself and not rely on reviews. This past Sunday Chris and I found ourselves enjoying probably the best breakfast/brunch that we have had since moving to Brevard just about a year ago.  Quite honestly it was Continue reading →

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...
