Dragon Run Park

Dragon Run Park

It’s February in Delaware. You never know what can happen with the weather, and lately it’s been all over the place. It’s usually gorgeous, sunny and warm during the week while I’m stuck inside at work and then bitter cold and blustery over the weekend.

Located along the Wicomico River, the original plantation home was built in 1741 and the owner was one of Salisbury’s founders.       Today, the historical buildings remain and are opened to the public […]

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

May 29, 2021 By Becca Leave a Comment

What kind of mental picture do you get when you think of Philadelphia? Big cities are such a juxtaposition between beauty and filth in my personal opinion. Everywhere you look there are piles of trash, graffiti, and dilapidated buildings. Philly has more than its' fair share of those things BUT it … [Read More...]
