10 Tips for Moving Toward Your Adventure Goals This Year

January 1, 2022 By Nedra McDaniel 6 Comments

As I reflected on my previous years’ adventure list goals, I noticed that there were still adventures left on my list by the end of the year…and that’s ok.

What I love is that when given the opportunity to cross something off my list, I took it. There were also adventures that weren’t on my original adventure list that were added and then crossed off along the way.

It’s important to recognize the moments that are once in a lifetime, that you can only experience if you take action, in that moment, that time, that place.

February 14, 2020 By Nedra McDaniel 6 Comments

On our way to Washington, D.C. on a family vacation, we took the longer, scenic route through the mountains.

It’s also the site of a former top-secret bunker.

Tips for Visiting the Gap Clearance Center

January 3, 2020 By Nedra McDaniel 21 Comments

There is a place in Northern Kentucky that is a favorite discount shopping destination of mine.

It is not for the faint of heart.
