Right after Lakefest, we had the pleasure of hosting my Israeli family (the Almogs) for visits to both Asheville and Lake Gaston. We packed our Asheville days with mountain hikes, downtown exploration, a baseball game, and plenty of craft beer sampling. Hopscotch Music Festival in Raleigh never disappoints! We enjoyed all the usual traditions: Crowmeat Bob in the parking deck […]
“It’s Not Just a Wedding, It’s a Weekend“ We planned this wedding for almost two years, and it was important to us that we created the ultimate party environment. You only get one shot to get all of your friends and family together to party with you and we made the most of it! The Setup All guests stayed onsite […]
Gearing up for Lakefest 2025 with some petsitting, adventure drinking, and a trip to the Big Apple! Our good friend Christine threw us a pre-wedding “Adventure Drinking” party with our Raleigh friends. Each destination was determined by rolling a die that had a variety of specific bars and types of location (e.g., rooftop bar or bar w/games). It was well […]
Hey Snackheads! We’re back with another photo gallery post. We’ve been busy since our last check-in, including my bachelor party in Nashville, a wedding (plus hiking and camping) in Aspen, visiting lots of restaurants around Raleigh with Offline, and becoming Star Sitter’s on Rover! Quick shoutout to my incredible group of friends who joined me on my bachelor party. Y’all […]
Since our last post, we’ve picked up the trailer in Nebraska, drove it south to Texas, along our southern border to Florida, and back up to North Carolina, mostly along Interstate 10 – our last untraveled route between NC and CO. You can track our journeys (since getting engaged) on Stacey’s Google map — we’re now starting the ‘green’ track. […]
OK – a few random things to cover for the month of April! After Snowbasin we made our way back to the Cottonwood Heights area. We pet sat for two very adorable and cuddly cavapoos that maybe weighed 10 pounds combined. Great petsit overall – easy dogs, nice house, good location, and lots of games including a bumper pool table. […]
Spring is my favorite season—great weather, longer days, peak snowpack, and dropping avalanche danger. What’s not to love? FRIENDS COME VISIT Kelcie and Stacey skied Snowbasin, we all met up at Unita Brewing, and she brought us Highlands beer! Tim & Michelle visited for backcountry and resort skiing (more below) Rubie & Lizzie drove down from Park City to ski […]
The winter season is in full gear and we’re living our best life! Sharing some highlights of the last month(ish)… Skiing: Top Housesits – Houses: Top Housesits – Pets: Other Fun Stuff:
We dropped off the camper we made our way to the mountains of Colorado! Our first stop was Winter Park for a week. We skied, took advantage of our AirBnB’s board games and kitchen, and saw friends in the area. One afternoon we stopped for a drink in the lodge at the lodge and found our friend Jeff’s canned cocktails […]
Like confused Canadian Geese, Stacey and I flock from East to West every year around this time. We’ve packed up our gear, said our goodbyes, and left NC for various mountains across the country. Family Fun: A Murder Mystery & Thanksgiving in Boston My mom’s 70th birthday was this year, so Stacey and I threw her (and all her friends) […]
