Tomorrow, Dan and I are heading off for a beach getaway! Our good friends Ali and Kevin are getting married on the Cayman Islands next Saturday, and we decided to turn it into a week's vacation — with friends, which is super fun. I don't know if this happens to you, but I wind up always working doubly hard the week before going away. So after the packing, the airport security, and trying to fit in all my to-do's, there's this huge sense of relief that washes over me when I'm sitting on the plane and realize I made it. Woohoo!
Please come visit the Haystack Needle next week — that's why I'm tap, tap tapping away on my laptop this week! I have a full lineup of great what's green swap? find out more Green Swap posts scheduled to run while I'm gone, including some amazing experts (a TV host, even!) and giveaways. I'm announcing a giveaway later today too. And I have a fun surprise I hope you like. Because I won't be around next week to post on the random newsy finds, I'm doing a daily series of posts all about vacations. Each day next week, I'll be posting photos from a different favorite destination where I've traveled. Each day will be a surprise. You'll see a little more of me, a peek at the places I love, and recommendations in case you wind up in one of my favorite spots. I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to leave me comments about your favorite trips + places to visit — I'd LOVE to come back to have your comments to read.
Off to pack!
