I haven't traveled in a minute, and though I'm not leaving the country, tomorrow I'll be setting foot somewhere I have never been. I've been to this state, but not in this exact location. Any guesses where I'll be for the next couple days?

In our area, school is almost out, and SUMMER IS KNOCKING ON OUR DOOR! What are your plans for fun and sun? I literally am in the midst of planning my family's summer of water and sand castles and memory-making fun. So if you haven't planned yet, then it isn't too late. It's a great time for Caribbean deals & deals around the US! Do you have plans? Half-baked thoughts? ✈️🏝☀️🌎⛱

I'm kind of geeking out over here! It feels like my worlds are colliding. Could I actually be on a river cruise with THE Jen Hatmaker? You could too! Sets sail from Amsterdam August 3, 2024. I sooooo enjoy her hilarious writing style. It would be thrilling to be on an 7-night river cruise with her in Holland and Belgium! please send all your friends my way for booking. It would be my pleasure to spoil them rotten! Especially I promise to be (mostly) chill on the cruise.

Moments away equal memories forever.
Some of life's most special memories come from our travels. Where have you been dreaming about going? Where can I send you next?

River cruising is very exciting to me. What a lovely way experience new sights, sounds, tastes, and smells.

Passport processing times are currently up to 13 weeks. Even if you have no international travel on the docket, may I suggest that it's time to get your passport?

My personal tips
1) Take your passport pictures at home and get them printed at Walmart (most wallet-friendly)...The State Department website will tell you if your pic meets the requirements.

2) Take your photos, your completed forms, your ID, etc to a Passport Acceptance Facility. We had a GREAT experience at the Indian Prairie Library in Darien, IL. (If it's you're first time applying, you need to go in person. You might be eligible to renew an existing passport by mail, but read all the requirements.)

3) If your passport is WITHIN ONE YEAR of expiring, then it is time to renew. You do not want to travel with a passport that will be expiring within 6 months of international travel; therefore, get out ahead of that and renew before it's urgent.

4) It's expensive enough to get passports without having to pay for expedited service (which won't alleviate your stress in a rush situation). Passports are good for 10 years (or 9-9½ ish years: see Tip No. 3). There's value in those dollars spent.

5) I had a friend who was offered a week vacation in Paris at the last minute for spring break. She couldn't go because she and her husband didn't have valid passports. True story.

The State Department site is the only website you should be referencing for passport services:

"If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey, I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey, I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance on me
(That's all I ask of you, honey)
Take a chance on me
We can go dancing, we can go walking, as long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking, get to know you better....."

I would love to celebrate a sacred holiday with loved ones at this beautiful table on a beach! Blessings and joy to all this Eid-Al Fitr. ❤️

As a child, I went to Mackinac Island twice, and those are some fabulous rock-solid memories. But I never stayed at the Grand Hotel. The Grand Hotel is certainly a bucket list item for me, and I cannot wait to take my own children to step back in time on the very quaint Mackinac Island. I think they'll love the fudge shoppes!
