Have you ever picked sunflowers? I hadn’t until last week’s mini-uno-day-cation with the kiddos. After we left the Blue Willow Inn for lunch we headed to this absolute TREAT of a place, a lovely Sunflower Farm in Rutledge, GA. There is so much to see at this wonderful place, both big and small. Part of…
This week’s “mini-uno-day-cation” is a two parter. I had certainly heard of but had never visited the well known, Blue Willow Inn in Social Circle, Georgia. So, the first part of the kiddo’s and my one day trip was a stop to eat there. YUM! If you are in the area and are at all…
On the way home from our last adventure, I asked the kids to each write down two places they’d like to go next week and we’d vote from their suggestions. When the day for this week’s mini-uno-day-cation came closer and no one made any suggestions (other than Niagara Falls, which is NOT close to home…

Here’s part one in case you missed it: Part 1. 😉 Ok, so I finally got back on the road from Dean and Deluca. I was about 5 pounds lighter due to all the cash I spent at D&D. However, with the packages I was about 8 lbs heavier so D&D made me gain 3…
As you know I spent last Thursday through Sunday in Charlotte, NC setting up, taking down and working in the Scrapbook Corner.com booth with Cricut Dan and his wife, Shelly. Well, let me give you the Joy’s eye view of the trip. 1st…Known Fact: I’m not a fan of heights. See this post for previous…
I have a fear of heights. So, it may seem out of character to request a high floor in the Marriott Fallsview Hotel and equally as bizarre for to go up in Canada’s Skylon tower. Yes, it is out of character. I like to stay below floor 9 when in a hotel, but I chose…
