I’ve been back in Massachusetts for a couple of days now, having missed some wild weather (including a few tornado touchdowns!) as we begin to transition from Summer to Fall – but the mornings have had a delightful chill to them, and the storefronts are starting to display more and more pumpkins and mums – […]
It’s kind of wild, but mostly funny to think about my trips to Las Vegas throughout my early twenties – where the only places I’d ever frequent regularly were the Strip or Fremont Street regardless of the size of the crowds or the length of the lines that developed depending on the occasion/event, or holiday.

As I gradually transition back into my life and schedule here on the East Coast (only touching down in Boston following a red eye flight from Nevada just a couple of hours ago!)
