green space and delish dinner

The best parts about my travel have always been the people, places and food. I’ve been invited to visit  more exciting places and to eat more delicious food than I ever imagined I would in a lifetime. Oh the fun.

A few weeks back I was invited to and attended the Taltree Arboretum and Gardens Annual Gala in Indiana, and tonight I’ve been invited to have dinner at @1800 in Wisconsin. I will be posting about both of these within the next week and as usual I can’t wait to share, always hoping you all out there will be inspired to do things that you love and that you think are delicious and exciting.

Here’s to delicious and exciting!

photographer for blr play it forward

We are very excited to share that Adam Wilson will be our photographer for 8/18/12 weekend!

Adam happily jumped right in to volunteer to work with us and we didn’t even have to ask. We’re so thankful to the people and companies who’re donating time and services to our event. BLR Play It Forward and the Blue Lollipop Road Memorial Scholarship is all possible because a lot of generously gifted time from volunteers, paid registrations from alumni, and services/monetary donations from all of you out there. This all continues to prove to us that when you do work that matters, people really do want to jump in and help. That is a very powerful and motivating thing!

Thank you Adam! We are looking forward to working with you.

…we’ll be back with many more thanks soon…

hello there

We are just 38 days away from BLR Play It Forward in Vermont! We can’t wait. It’s been so fun to reconnect with old friends who we will see soon, not to mention reading the scholarship applications for the BLR Memorial Scholarship; Better than what we ever expected to receive. There are some amazingly inspiring kids out there in high school sports these days!

Recent unexpected but welcomed surprise:

A couple of fun and exciting opportunities have popped up for BLR to be involved with after the big reunion soccer event. Details are in the works and we will share news when we have it. Never a dull moment around here and we like to keep it that way. Whoop!

Something we all know but It’s always good to be reminded:

Work your butt off, do what you love, and opportunities will present themselves.

What are you waiting for?

ROAD TRIP!

A few days ago my mind started to wander. When that happens, especially in the summertime- it usually means 1 thing: That I’m jonesing for the open road.

I’m about to throw a few things in the BLR-mobile and off I go with windows down! 1,000 miles on a Friday is my kind of day at work.

Have a guess to where I’m going? Let’s just say this country girl is ready to get out of the city.

Here’s to the open road! Next post from destination fresh air…
