Shae, Truffles and I spent mid-October to mid-December in Oregon, having postponed that from our original plans to spend the summer there. We didn't pick the greatest time of year to visit weather-wise which meant we were less inclined to spend a lot of time outdoors, plus … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Oregon

Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Colorado
Shae, Truffles and I spent all of June and July and a little bit of August and September 2021 (with an international trip in between) in Colorado while on our 50 state road trip. This was our third time visiting Colorado on our road trip though. We stayed a few weeks in Denver … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Colorado
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Arizona
Shae and I spent most of April and May of 2021 in Arizona having also spent a couple of weeks there in 2020 just before - and just as - COVID started impacting the US. It's a beautiful state with lots of great hiking, delicious food and other stuff to do, although the heat can … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Arizona
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From New Mexico
Shae and I spent February, March and the first week of April 2021 in New Mexico. We'd spent a few weeks in Albuquerque, NM at the start of the pandemic last year, but didn't get to see much due to everything being shut down. I'd been looking forward to returning because we had … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From New Mexico
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Maryland
Shae and I spent mid-October to mid-December 2020 in Maryland, the first state we feel we've completed since COVID hit. We'd spent time in other states in 2020 like Arizona and New Mexico, but didn't get to fully explore those, so we'll be heading back to those in the … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Maryland
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Louisiana
After spending most of January 2020 in Mississippi, Shae and I moved on to Louisiana where we spent the next month. Neither of us had spent any time in the Bayou state before, so we didn't really know what to expect. We were picturing a lot of swamps and not much to do, but … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Louisiana
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Mississippi
Shae and I kicked off 2020 by spending 3.5 weeks in Mississippi. We'd never visited the Magnolia State before, so we weren't too sure what to expect. Having said that, our impression of Mississippi before visiting wasn't great, but by the end of our time there it had gone up … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Mississippi
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Tennessee
Shae and I spent the last four weeks of 2018 in Tennessee, staying in four cities while there - Chattanooga, Memphis, Nashville and Knoxville. We actually stayed in Nashville twice as we spent 10 days there before Christmas and returned on December 31 to celebrate New Year's … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Tennessee
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Washington D.C.
Shae and I recently spent 12 days in Washington D.C. while on our 50 state road trip. Well, I say "in" Washington D.C., but we actually stayed in Chantilly, VA as hotels downtown were too expensive for our budget, but I wish we'd arranged some of that differently. Despite … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Washington D.C.
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From West Virginia
Shae and I recently spent four weeks in West Virginia while on our 50 state road trip. We'd driven through West Virginia many times in the past when visiting friends in Ohio, but had never spent any time there. The reason we picked the fall to head there wasn't just because of … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From West Virginia
