We got an opportunity to meet up with Lisa and Joe, the owners of Sanctuary Brewing Company, in Henderson, North Carolina. Not only do they own a brewery, but they also own their own 501(c)(3) animal sanctuary on top of it. Combining beer and saving animals meant we HAD to sit down and have a chat with them! They let us come by before they had opened so...
We met Trisha and Drew through the “vegans with chickens” Facebook group and it was a no-brainer that we would try and link up while we were in Asheville so that we could visit their sanctuary and try and shine a spotlight on the great work that they are doing. We drove about an hour outside of Asheville to get there and met up with them at their...
We ended up in the Shenandoah Valley as part of our quest to hit all of the national parks in the country and it is the home of Shenandoah National Park. The thing we were looking forward to most was that we were in bear country and Shenandoah National Park is known for bear sightings. We were also in the midst of several underground cavern systems so we...
We were really looking forward to spending a day in New York City as tourists. Even though we travel full time, we both have full-time jobs that require us to be present during specific hours of the day and thus, we are often limited in what we can do when we only have a week in one location. Luckily, we had a full day on the weekend where we got to...
We had two full weeks in the Boston area and wanted to cram in as much as we could. We ate at several different restaurants and explored some of the historical areas in town. Hayden went to school nearby and still had friends in the area, so we got to visit with them as well as take a tour of her alma mater, Wheaton College. Where we stayed We were...
Last year, we visited Salem, Massachusetts the week before Halloween while we were in town for a wedding and we were super excited to come back and visit this year! Immediately we decided to check out the Flying Saucer pizza restaurant that we previously visited with our friends Pati and Saydi. After putting our names in for a spot and waiting for a half...
Acadia National Park in Maine was extremely high on Hayden’s list of places to visit, so we were very excited we got to spend several days exploring it. The first day we went hiking, the entire area was overcast with dense fog which gave it a really creepy appearance, but also hindered our view overlooking the cliffs. We could barely see 5 feet in front...
Being in New Hampshire during the fall is a beautiful experience. We were a bit early for the changing of the leaves on the trees, but it was the first time we really got a chance to experience the crisp cool weather. We were looking forward to some hiking, visiting with friends, and we even got a chance to go see IT in theaters! Where we stayed We stayed...
