The Stanley Hotel and Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado

LOL ok. I think I’m finally emotionally ready to write about this part of the trip. For awhile, I was kind of sick of rehashing it, and I felt like every time I brought it up or someone asked about it, I was manifesting something. After a little break, and having to recently tell the story again last weekend, I feel a little bit … Read More The Stanley Hotel and Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado

Denver, Red Rocks and The Source Hotel

Adventures in West Hollywood, Los Angeles

In some of my other posts, I’ve mentioned I have a hard time justifying spending thousands of dollars on a vacation, but I still manage to travel a good bit.
