Taking to the Skies - Again!

Good morning & Happy Friday! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week. Mine has been pretty busy/hectic, but it's been a great week. It was my 2nd week at my job and I am loving it! I've already gotten to do a little bit of writing! The nerd in me loves all the research I am doing and the social part of me loves all the client meetings & interactions with our sales partners.

What's made this week even better is that I've had another weekend getaway to look forward to! Early tomorrow morning I fly out to St. Louis to visit this lovely lady!!!


That's a picture of Nora and I this summer at the Brandi Carlile concert. I got to play tour guide when she came to visit so now it's her turn to show me the sights of her city! I have never been to St. Louis so am really excited to check out another US city! She's got a great itinerary planned for us which includes things like: the penguin exhibit at the zoo, hot cocoa, book stores, Mexican food, a home cooked meal, and SATC + wine + perusal of Vogues. And the temps are going to be in the 40's which will feel FANTASTIC!

I'll likely be back next week with yet another travel re-cap! Have a fabulous weekend, everyone!

    You lucky duck! I flew over St Louis once and saw the arch, but hear it's a great place to visit! Have fun! It will be a good weekend to get away as we go back to the deep freeze again!

    I had no idea you were traveling again! You are one lucky lady! Have fun, Lisa! That's going to be so so fun!!

    I love St. Louis. In fact, I fell so in love with the city/downtown -- that I was seriously considering going to college there! But, I soon learned it would be easier (less expensive) to start out in-state!


    Enjoy your weekend -- looking forwrad to your recap!

    I went to St. Louis for a conference a few years ago...the Arch is quite fun to visit, and the museum (I'm a bit of a Lewis and Clark nerd). Also, Washington Park is a great place to run! And then there's BBQ.... Have fun! (Visiting a friend is the best part!)
