Impact-Site-Verification: 3ea2c205-8cc5-4b25-8674-7ca734a012af I just wanted to take a minute to THANK Rise & Grind for coming in clutch this Christmas. Where does December even go? I placed an order with a last minute addition for my coworker/teacher gifts this year. I think it really is the thought that counts, so why shouldn’t the thought be […]

Normally downtown Charleston is not my jam. Fife Street Brewing, on the other hand, is ALL the jam! I never really thought of myself as a beer flight girlie, even if my style is giving ✨lumberjack✨. I do have to say trying to detect notes of toffee or banana with my unsophisticated palate was really […]
The Polar Express is one of those things I would see scattered across facebook that made me so excited to have kids someday. Being a thirty something first time Mom, I had to wait my turn to experience that Christmas magic as a family. It was worth the wait! It was so much more than […]
Being West Virginian AF, I have camped at quite a few campgrounds all the way from Gatlinburg to Myrtle Beach 😂. I am trying to branch out, especially in our good ole Dubya V. This year I decided to skip our fall Gatlinburg trip for a 3 day weekend in Pocahontas County, and she did […]

I can’t remember the exact moment I first noticed the light house that sits on a mountain above Summersville Lake, but I can remember the shock like it was yesterday. I probably said something to the effect of “That’s a damn light house! No, go back! There was a LIGHT HOUSE! When did that get […]
The Kirkwood Grape Stomp Festival 2021 – Yall, this was a TIME! The faded hand painted sign advertising the festival dates has caught my eye for years, but sadly I never made it back to Summersville after Labor Day weekend. I’ve been Kirkwood’s biggest fan forever. My wedding in 2013 served exclusively Kirkwood wines. Local […]
You will find Gad Dam Brewing just off the beaten path right in my favorite place in the world – Summersville, WV. Having barely spotted the sign when taking our boat to the carwash I mistakenly read it as “Gad Dam Brewery”, and was instantly intrigued. For those of you who may not know, dams […]
Summersville Lake I first went to Summersville Lake in the Summer of 2008. I had heard of people going and sharing a picture here and there before social media blew up. At that point in my life I assumed to really see something beautiful and to really have an experience you had to leave the […]
