Y'all, some getaways need a spreadsheet - flights, dinner reservations, a color-coded itinerary. An anniversary weekend at the lake is not that kind of trip, and that's the whole point. Here's what I mean. You check in, and that's it — no lobby line,… Read more
Y'all, let's be clear about something up front: this isn't a bachelorette-with-sashes, up-till-4am kind of girls' weekend – so leave your veil at home. This is the "we've earned a slow morning and a good glass of wine" kind — and honestly, I think th… Read more
Y'all, my sons-in-law Tyler and Coy love to fish, and when they talk gear, I listen. So when they told me Kentucky Lake Outdoors is the best one-stop shop for anything hunting or fishing around here, I believed them immediately — and now I'm passing … Read more
Y'all, if you've stayed with us more than once, you've probably heard me mention Kentucky Dam Marina — it's a mile down the road, and I bring it up so much I probably should've written this a long time ago. So today, let's talk about the whole area: … Read more

People love their coffee. I don't get it. I never acquired a taste for it, and grabbing a can of Diet Moutain Dew is so much more convenient. But that's for another day. Sweet thing is a coffee snob. Our Chloe is a coffee snob. Even my super practica… Read more
