Traveling on an airplane. I don’t like the efforts that go into flying, especially when I was l leaving from LAX. Now? I actually miss the hustle, bustle, and frustration of airports. There. I said it. Live concerts. On two separate occasions last year, my […]
Despite this year being a very understandable pity party, there are still some positive aspects. One for me has been the opportunity to attend several events and conferences virtually that I’ve missed in past years due to timing, funds, or travel. The latest on the […]
I’m probably a broken record by now, but this has been a very strange year. I’m someone who loves to be among people yet also spend a lot of my time solo by choice. This is probably the most time I’ve spent with Mike, my […]
I don’t know about you, but I’m getting bored. One look around this website and it’s pretty clear I’m a wanderluster. I love the thrill of the open road, planning my next trip, or eagerly adding places to check off of my bucket list. Then, […]
(Editor’s Note: I’m thrilled to welcome back Julie Raelyn today for a terrific review of the Canyon Theatre Guild’s online production of Strangely Distant in Awesometown! xo, Mary) Well, I want to start off by saying these are strange times, indeed. On an indefinite pause […]

So, it’s been a while since my last post. At the end of May, I was typing away at several stories that I was excited to soon share. I’d received such positive feedback from my posts about our current state of the world and living […]
Happy Cinco de Mayo, quarantine edition! While I know most of us had planned on an epic Taco Tuesday celebration, guess what? We’re still safer at home. Mike and I have been trying to make the most of this “pause”; finally hanging up paintings, going […]
It’s hard to believe it’s once again Monday. While I know I’m not the only one beginning to go a little stir crazy (or maybe you’re already there?), I’ve been attempting to keep busy. Easier said than done, I must say. I feel antsy. The […]
Happy…day? I don’t know about you, but these quarantine days are beginning to seem like one BIG day. It felt good to promote some favorite cities last week on Along Comes Mary’s Support Local series. I’m back on this Easter weekend with a new installment […]
Welcome back! Thanks to all who gave me great feedback and love on my first installment of Support Local. In these strange times of health safety closures, we’re all in this together. It breaks my heart to think of all the local businesses that are […]
