Finding Romance in The Mountains

While many of you aren’t going to like the following statement, I am excited that the fall is on its way. My favourite season, it offers me sweater weather, cuddling on the couch more, and all things seasonally and emotionally warm. That being said, I have to admit this summer may have been my favourite one yet here at the blog because I made a concerted effort to reconnect with the important things in life in order to remember what is most important.

That being said, just because I’m on a budget, doesn’t mean that I don’t want to take full advantage of the warm weather and enjoy getaways whenever we can. Thankfully I was recently introduced to a getaway idea in our own proverbial backyard that not only stayed in budget, but left me excited to tell you about it too!
