STILL in a Pandemic!!

 Hello All!!

YES, we are still in a pandemic and we here in California have gone to a strict stay-at-home order. Which, we have been doing anyway. Pat and I have not gone anywhere since MARCH! With that being said, we are NOT anti-maskers, we are NOT Non Covid Believers, we are 100% into doing what we are supposed to do. 

I do wish I could be posting about our last trip/adventure. THANK GOODNESS we went to Costa Rica in January. We at least got one trip in this year. 

One HUGE accomplishment this year was the ELECTION and the US VOTE!! Super impressed on how many people went out and voted to put our country back on track. This year will be historic and I hope everyone, no matter who you support, realize how deeply generation changing January 20th, 2020 will be. I feel truly accomplished, as a woman, to be here, presently to live in this time of our history. All girls, young women, and women, need to watch the Inauguration on January 20th, 2021 so they can feel how the impact of this election will affect all of us, but, especially the women and the weight of this "FIRST" in American History.  Stand up and be proud to be an American Woman at this point and time. You can also click on the picture!!!

If you know me, I am NOT a 45 fan. NEVER HAVE BEEN. BUT, I will call out anyone who's in charge. What we've gone through in the last four years, has been HELL or worse than hell. If that's possible. 

I have added links in this blog to FairFight, Stacey Abrams (American Hero), foundation to fight Voter Suppression, as well as, links to President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris. Please check out all of these links. We ALL need to educate ourselves on the people who we are voting into office and all of the shady dealings others are trying to do to stop our vote and suppress information being published. 

I just wanted to hop on here to say, stay strong help is on its' way, stay safe, our numbers are out of control and stay positive because, there is a light at the end of this DARK tunnel. In more way than one! 

Cheers to HOPE that we can travel in 2021!!! 



Enjoy the Ride!!!

COSTA RICA!!! BUCKET LIST..Check!

Hello all!!!
We had the INCREDIBLE opportunity to go to Costa Rica!! Yes, one of my Bucket List items...CHECK IT OFF !!! My Cousin Kevin is awesome!! He gets a house for FREE every year and this year..WE WENT DOWN!! OMG!!! DREAM COME TRUE!!
Wasn't near long enough, but really SUPER AWESOME..makes us want to go again!!

First of all, Kevin and his husband fly first class everywhere, whereas, Pat and I fly with the chickens and goats. Sooooo, Kevin and my mom surprised us with 1st CLASS To Costa Rica!! We flew out of LAX on Alaska Airlines. Parked our car at my mom's house in Santa Monica and she got us an UBER BLACK to the airport..Rockstar Status!! OMG...! What an experience that was! First you get the 1st Class Lounge with Food and Booze are free... then you get on the plane and....FOOD and BOOZE FREE!! (not free per say...it's built into the first class price..but still)!!


It was a beautiful flight. 5 hours from LAX to Liberia.


This was an historic flight. Pat used an Airplane bathroom for the first time because we had a LOT of beer..!! HAHAHA!!

When you land, you get your bags, then go through Immigration. My cousin got us a Shuttle to the house..1 1/2 drive to Nosara...45 minutes on a dirt road. So fun!!! We had a "BEER" stop, potty break, beer stop and potty break...HAHHAHA!! 

Then we made it and it was all worth it!!!
May I introduce you to, Buenda Onda, Nosara Beach Costa Rica
You can rent it on VRBO..Link is above..
OMG!!!
























See.. ? toldya! Every room has it's own AC unit and every bedroom has it's own bathroom and access to the backyard with the pool!

Vacation has started!! Officially when we walked in!!

Fridge full of beer! And we were good!


WOOHOO!!!
Here we go!
Kevin rented a golf cart for the week so we got to jam around in that!! Super fun!






 We went shopping at the grocery store to pick up stuff. We were in charge of Pool toys!!
This was a hit!

 Watermelon float!!! A lot of fun was had by all!
Our days consisted of, wake up, clean pool, go in pool, eat, drink repeat...



This night was a great one!! Had so many laughs and learned a lot about my crazy family...Here we are doing Tequila Shots with a lot of beer and whiskey!!


We got to see jungle wildlife while just walking around and sitting on the back patio!!





 So that was fun...Monkeys and Cuatis...Oh My!!

On our last night there, we went to a restaurant RIGHT on the beach at sunset and it was super Gorgeous!!











Our last sunset in Costa Rica was Bonita!!! 

This trip makes us want to go back and as soon as we can!! 1st Class both ways this time!!!

Enjoy the Ride!!!
