In September of 2006, when we made our first ever visit to Brigantine, New Jersey on a barrier island just north of Atlantic City, a local resident recommended we eat at the Pirates Den restaurant. We have been repeat visitors at the Pirates Den several times each year since then. Note to my Myriad Grammar […]

We spent the first day of our mid-week escape from Philadelphia to Bucks County, Pennsylvania visiting the three sites composing the Mercer Mile in Doylestown, the county seat. When lunch time approached, we asked one of the employees at the Mercer Museum for a recommendation. Without hesitation, she recommended The Hattery. She explained it is […]

I’m a life long Philadelphian and an unashamed history geek. When I was growing up, an immersive dive into the history of […]

I survived my annual Thanksgiving turkey cooking freak out, so it must be time to start to think about buying holiday gifts for loved ones. If you were one of those people who failed in their resolution to have all their holiday shopping done by the end of November—that ship has sailed. Fortunately, you still have […]

Thanks to an invitation from the Woodloch Pines Resort outside Hawley, Pennsylvania, in the northeastern Poconos, Mr. Excitement and I had the chance to escape from our real life for a two night autumn weekday escape. Woodloch is an approximately three hour drive from our Center City Philadelphia apartment. We managed to get ourselves a […]

Once the summer muggies descend on our hometown, Philadelphia, we head “down the shore” to the house we bought in Brigantine, on the first barrier island north of Atlantic City, New Jersey. When we brilliantly bought the house right before the 2008 real estate collapse caused by the financial crisis, our then 20-something sons incredulously asked […]

I’ve been an unapologetic history geek ever since my father took me on a tour of all things Benjamin Franklin in Philadelphia for a fourth grade school report, so I’m happy to review the 2015 guidebook, Philadelphia Liberty Trail by baby boomer travel writers and bloggers, Larissa and Michael Milne.
