Key West or Bust Road Trip

After a LONG day on the road I decided to check into a Drury Inn located in Bowling Green. I forgot all of the funny things you see along the side of the road while driving!

This sure caught my attention!

But wait I am getting ahead of myself! First I have to show you the photo of my car that i think needs a KEY WEST OR BUST bumper sticker! I fit everything in there but the kitchen sink. I even purchased a bike rack so I could bring my favorite bike and cute basket with me. I know I will get a lot of use out of my bike living in Key West since the island is only 4 miles x 2 miles.

Look out for my #KEYWESTORBUST sticker!

Also I have one of the best Moms a girl can ask for! She bought all of my favorite snacks and filled my cooler!

Well since I am going to spending so much time in the car I figured I should break out some old Cd’s and sing my way to Key West … Or listen at least! I also downloaded the Audio Book version of Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks! I will say I REALLY do like the book and I have actually had a few times that I was laughing out loud!

I used to LOVE these guys!

Now I am all checked in and ready for bed! And these guys had a great idea for the soap and shampoo in the room!

I’m MOVING …

I’m MOVING … Well I hope at least! I have been offered a job house sitting for someone in the Florida Keys and I am going to take it … It will be a HUGE move for me since I live outside of Chicago. I am very excited and freaking out at the same time. But I have to just keep telling myself that its all going to workout for the best and you can’t be happy unless you do something to get there. Who doesn’t want to wake up every morning to palm trees possibly in your front yard? I am going to be blogging about my adventures on the road and while in Key West!

Wish me courage … I need that more than luck this week!

Peace, LOVE and Tweeting

Roberts Riverwalk Hotel – Detroit

Roberts Riverwalk Hotel – Detroit

I recently stayed here for a Lions game and after reading all the reviews on Yelp I really wanted to give this hotel some much needed credit. The hotel is located a little outside of the downtown hussle and bussle but it was a quick shuttle ride to the game! The shuttle is also FREE from the hotel. I will warn you make sure you are downstairs waiting for it and plan to have a few loads before you. We did take a cab back to the hotel and it was less than $10. Room was nice and clean, the staff was pleasant and helpful. Overall I would recommend this hotel to others and it was a great value since all we really wanted was a bed to sleep in. I will say don’t bother with the food-bar area downstairs. They seemed to be over worked and nothing like the service we received at the reception desk.
