05/04 Last Chance: California Youth Hostel

 

When graduating from college, it can be overwhelming to think about what lays ahead. Finding a full time job, a new place to live, and for some, kids will be coming down the road, all of which means that the real world is looming and the carefree college days of old are gone for good. To get closure and make the most of the last days of youth, crisscrossing the country to see everything and go wild one last time is a good way to go. There are many places to stay along the way and a California youth hostel is probably one of the most exciting places as it represents America to the fullest.   

 

04/27 Verona is home to the Roman Amphitheater…Really!

Although the Colosseum, in Rome, and the Arena, in Verona look fairly similar from the outside, it is worth the trip to visit the slightly less popular Arena due to the fact that the interior has remained mostly in tact. In fact, it is still used today to seat up to 15,000 people for opera performances throughout the summer. The acoustics of the Arena are ideal for these musical performances, and anyone who has the opportunity to enjoy one of these shows will be impressed.

Many tourists are drawn to the size of the Colosseum, but Verona is home to the Roman amphitheater that is still being used. An impressive feat for a structure built almost 2000 years ago.

The state of Arizona is oft pictured as nothing more than a desert. But such spectacular landforms as the Grand Canyon and the Painted Desert have become international symbols of the region’s ruggedness because a lot of the state is dominated by mountains. Yet Arizona’s environment is also very delicate as the desert is a fragile ecosystem. A great way to experience this unique climate is at one of the Arizona log cabins.  It is rustic living just like the Wild West used to be and it is a great getaway for couples and families alike.  

04/20 Make Your Family Holildays Special

Every year, as the holidays approach, I think to myself, “This year I am going to make my family holidays special. I am going to be the best hostess around and I will be the envy of all who strive to make their holidays special too.” Why do I put such pressure on myself, and why do I feel the need to outdo anyone else. I need to lose this sense of competition and realize that all my family wants me to do is spend time with them forming great memories and new traditions. My gift next year will be my time. Time not being the best hostess, but being the best mom I can be for my husband and my boys.
