A word to the wise…
I stopped at the shell station today across from Hawks Stadium on Glenwood and they cut you off at $75 on your credit card! I had to reswipe to finish filling the tank.
It was a little annoying… I know Fred Meyer’s does this at a certain amount (I think $50) but usually it’s posted.
A friend of mine who is hip on the music scene just sent me an e-mail with a new staycation idea for this 4th of July weekend that can also help you beat the heat!
Head down to Qwest Arena for Indie Fest ‘08. Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door. You can [...]
If you are like us, you might be having guests coming in from out of town. We are still working on our FUN LIST for the weekend, but here are a few things earning top consideration:
Thursday night: dinner… Not sure on this one, if I don’t decide to turn my guests into guinea pigs on [...]
One of my favorite events - that I never seem to make it out for - is a parade! I suppose I don’t get there as much anymore because parades just aren’t what they used to be. One of the best parts of a parade (besides free candy!) is the music. You know, the youth marching [...]
Last night, my dear husband and I were laying in bed and heard a loud pop. You guessed it…some idiot was letting off fire crackers…in the foothills…during a wind storm! How totally asinine! Moments later, we heard/saw the fire truck barreling down the road. Little did we know there were actually two brush fires in Hidden Springs [...]
I escaped on Friday…
From the house…
BY MYSELF!
Destination? Eagle, Idaho. A girlfriend and I were celebrating birthdays and decided a super cheap pedicure was in order … and lunch, too.
We decided to try this place called Rosy Nails and made an appointment ahead of time. The pedicure was not too bad. It was definately not about [...]
I have a bad case of “screen suck” lately… You know what I’m talking about… Spending way too much time on the computer, and then suddenly you realize you have accomplished NOTHING!
Well, as I was sucked in the other day, I found a great blog entry about beating the summer boredom for kids. Here is [...]
I suppose this kinda goes along with my recent string of “Staycation…” Because, after all, taking a “staycation” is about saving money!
A few months ago, my family and I began listening to financial guru Dave Ramsey http://www.daveramsey.com/ and reading one of his books - Financial Peace Revisited. We’ve taken many of his principals an put them [...]

I had no idea the buzz out on the Internet in travel circles about this word. STAYCATION
The more I read, the more I like. With the high price of gas, it’s becoming a hugely popular idea. So, in the spirit of saving gas, this post is all about a staycation AT HOME. Here are some ideas - some [...]
