Also from our trip last spring, LONDON. Drinks at the Harp! And a rose latte at AIDA. My Chelsea dream homes on Bywater Street. Leake Street Tunnel Dean and I have separated so it might be a very long time before I see my in-laws again. Shih tzu fam. I love Irregular Choice! This is […]
Last spring, visiting Erin in Prague. Waking up at sunrise to beat the crowds to Charles Bridge Giant butts by Černý! Not gonna lie- this was my number 1 tourist destination. Burgers at Belzepub. Erin’s boyfriend Honza is vegan and took us to a lot of cool places. Prague’s narrowest street in Malá Strana- so […]
We’d wanted to see Rock City for ages but it was only after reading American Gods that we finally made plans with our friends and went. If you’re into roadside attractions, this is a classic. There are ancient rock formations, 100s of plant species, and panoramic views like you wouldn’t believe. BUT THE NATURAL BEAUTY […]
Last fall, we were lucky enough to catch the closing day of Wayne-O-Rama, Wayne White’s larger-than-life, candy-colored tribute to Chattanooga– its notable figures and Lookout Mountain. Holy shit, what a treat! I felt like I walked into a cartoon funhouse. And I learned a lot! It was such a delight (and free!) that we went […]
I’ve been driving for a little over four years now and I hate it more than ever. But I love road trips more than ever too! Last spring, my mom was back in the states for two family weddings so we were able to go on a fun weekend up toward North Carolina. Snaps from […]
Infusing this cold, grey day in Athens with ultra-bright Pasaquoyan visions from the summer. I would’ve loved St. EOM’s psychedelic compound before its restoration but seeing it fixed up had that extra sweetness of knowing that not only does this place exist but people care enough to look after it. We asked the caretaker if […]
Yep! I’d just seen Nashville for the first time with my in-laws last spring, then I went back for a weekend trip in the fall with my library ladies, Lane and Erin. I say “Library Ladies” since the three of us used to work at the Athens public library. Good times! (Man, I miss my […]
Bits and bobs. Phew, that was a long, packed trip! Touring the Carter house in Franklin, home of 1,000 Civil War bullets. Earth mounds at the Kennesaw battlefield. “Wow, Steph. I didn’t know you were a Civil War buff!” The thing is, I’m not exactly. HOWEVER, like football, I grew up around a lot of […]
I love Alabama and can’t wait to visit again but I’ve gotta confess: Dean, Mum and Cliff did not care for ANY of it. Haha! I don’t know what other people look for when they visit a new place but I’m looking for rainbows, Satan and metal; all of which can be found in Beautiful […]
Alternate title: I fucking love William Faulkner! Growing up, I read very few books that weren’t horror, comics, or E.M. Forster (can’t explain how Forster snuck in…). Then in college, I got The Sound and the Fury as a required text and became instantly obsessed with William Faulkner. It was the most challenging novel I’d […]
