Travel from sea to shining sea; by car or by plane, there's plenty to see in the good ole US of A.

Eureka Springs in the Ozark Mountains
Eureka Springs is located in northwest Arkansas. It is a resort city that was named due to the many mineral pools surrounding it. Visitors also enjoy seeing the beautiful Ozark Mountains.

Disney Trip
Thursday is our EPCOT day and that means that Friday is our Hollywood Studios day. That does mean that I am anticipating slightly more crowds than we are going to have dealt with the rest of the week. But we will of course be getting Genie+ again and taking advantage of single rider lines. And obviously doing rope drop again, because I really hate lines. The park opens at 9AM and closes at 9PM and we will be doing the whole 12 hour park day.

Florida Trip
Hello! So I am far from a Disney blogger or influencer but I have a Universal Hollywood season pass and I am about to be in Orlando for a week doing both Universal and Disney. So I thought I would walk through my plans so that I can do a proper review of the trip as it's happening. Now I am a planner so everything down to our food and booze is cataloged and color coded on a spreadsheet. We are landing Saturday and spending Sunday in Disney Springs. So here are our detailed Disney Springs plans.

Universal Trip
Our first real stop in Florida will be Universal studios. My father got us tickets for 2 days but a special was happening so we really have 5 day park hopper tickets. We definitely won’t be using all of the days but I have a schedule for the 2 full days that we will be using, plus the halfday for horror nights. So we are going to take this day by day and I will go ahead and preface this with; our Universal days are going to be much more relaxed then our Disney days if for no other reason then we are season passholders to Hollywood and I have no problem spending two whole days in the Harry Potter section of the park.

Disney Plan
Our first Disney day will be in Epcot. This is arguably going to be the earliest day of the whole vacation because Guardians of the Galaxy is still on a virtual queue system. To add insult to injury we are not staying on property so I will be waking up around 6AM to get myself some food, get us to EPCOT, join the virtual queue by 7AM and make it to rope drop by 9. So that is how our day will be starting.

Universal Trip
Our first day in Universal studios is super packed but we will then return to the hotel for a good night's sleep to rise and shine nice and early all over again. The second day is going to be entirely Harry Potter centric so it will be a little more relaxed. I wanted to make sure that we have time to hit up all of the shops and things, and I am bringing my wand so I had to make sure I had time to do some magic as well.

Highway to the Stars. Top Story - September 2023.
Now, I’m not going to do this experience justice. I’m not going to be able to describe the feelings and visuals, but I’m hoping it’ll be enough to maybe connect or convince someone enough to seek this sight for themselves.

Irrigon, Oregon isn't the Oregon you know.
Irrigon, Oregon isn't the Oregon you know. There aren't waterfalls, a rocky coastline, or lush green forests. In Irrigon, there is corn, sand, and the murky waters of the Columbia. Water that understands it's best to travel West, away from this place and to the Ocean. I've grown certain that this part of the Oregon Trail is where people died of dysentery or maybe exhaustion gazing upon the miles of desert-like landscape and tumbleweed highways. A town so small that your mayor and bartender are one and the same. Residents drunkenly spill their beer and sorrows onto the bartop for one woman to clean.

Millions of individuals are holding their collective breaths, anxiously awaiting the imminent arrival of Hurricane Lee, as it menacingly advances towards the vulnerable U.S. coastline.

However, amidst the apprehension, there is a glimmer of hope that Hurricane Lee may deviate from its ominous path, thanks to the intervention of routine weather systems.
