Highlights

As little fun in the sun in Carlsbad at the Omni La Costa Resort (martinis included!). ☀️ ☀️ ☀️ This spot has remained a favorite retreat and recreation destination for generations, and we love coming here for staycations since it’s just up the road from our house in San Diego. This visit we were super lazy, but their golf course and tennis courts are legendary if you’re feeling active. Sometimes we just get a day pass and head over to the spa for massages and pool time. (Get the crab salad if you go - something about sitting in the sun while munching on that dish just makes the world a slightly better place.) Yep, we’ll be back again soon.

Seriously one of the most photogenic resorts we’ve ever visited. The @viceroyloscabos matches its beauty with a high level of service and all the amenities you’d want in a luxury vacation. And as parents to two beautiful (grown) girls, we love kids - but in the whole time we stayed here we saw maybe three kids. The quiet was bliss.

A chilly sunrise walk on the beach does wonders for your clarity and focus. (And the dogs don’t mind it either.) It doesn’t often get cold in San Diego, and when it does we all over-react and pile on layers, clutch hot drinks like our lives depend on it, and build fires in fireplaces that most people thought were just decorative. And by cold, I mean 45 degrees. Life is all about perspective. LOL

The afterglow of Christmas is the perfect lighting for a family photo. Everyone is happy, tummies are full of delicious things and good tidings are shared with one and all. Yep, it’s been a wonderful holiday at our house. We hope the same for you! Much love from the Bailey-Klughs.

Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it, and happy holidays to those that don’t! Much love from our home to yours.

Finally we got to stay at one of our bucket list hotels - the Viceroy Los Cabos. This resort is not only a stunning architectural masterpiece, but it offers all of the good things that make Los Cabos one of our favorite destinations. We’ve probably visited here at least a dozen times, and at last we booked a little couples getaway at @viceroyloscabos. More on the blog for details, but look at these photos. You literally cannot get a bad angle at this place!

Ok so in 30+ years of living in San Diego (for Triton it’s his entire life) and we’ve never been to the Holiday Boat Parade??!? Well there’s always a first, and we are no longer boat parade virgins. This year our experience was so spectacular we’re kicking ourselves for not going before! Granted, we had a sweet table at Topsail on the roof of the Brigantine on the waterfront. Front row seats with a view and a bar, basically. I mean what’s not to love about that? Definitely going again next year. See you there?

Sometimes we like to stop traveling so much and just enjoy the beautiful city we live in. San Diego is a destination many people visit as one of their favorites, and we took a moment to enjoy it with a staycation at Tower23 Hotel and JRDN Restaurant on the boardwalk in Pacific Beach. Watching the sunset while enjoying a delicious meal, hearing the waves breaking while laying in bed, waking up to that slight ocean haze and warm glow of sunrise, walking along the beach when the surfers were just heading out - this is a pretty awesome place whether you live here or come to visit. @t23hotel @jrdnrestaurant #pacificbeach #onthebeach #visitsandiego

Montreal is such a beautiful and dynamic city. Our first visit here was so impressive and immersive, with the French-European influence combined with that famous Canadian hospitality. Wow this city is just a stunner. Four nights was not enough to take in all the culture, art, food and history. If you haven’t been to @montreal yet, put it on your list now! And if you have visited before, get back there to see what’s new and visit your favs. We’re already making a list for the next time we visit!

I’ve been looking for a boost that helps fuel my morning workouts in a healthy way, and Mdrive is the ticket! #sponsored My workouts are better with higher stamina and more endurance, but I’ve also got more energy throughout the day - with no peaks and valleys along the way. I’ve tried several supplements before, and @mdrive is formulated for men to make a difference in our bodies and minds. Not only do I feel good, but it tastes good (no chalky flavor or chemical aftertaste) and the capsules are easy on my stomach. At this age, I’ll take any help I can get to stay in shape, and I’m so glad I’ve found the ideal supplement. Guys, you gotta try it! #mdrive #driven #fuelyourdrive

Seattle is full of fun surprises, and we had a blast exploring some of not-so-touristy activities, enjoying ah-mazing cuisine and just taking in the beauty of this special place. (Including some underground activities with a little potty humor. Stay tuned for more on that!)

Today is National Tequila Day, and we couldn't let that go by without commemorating our recent visit to its actual birthplace of Tequila, Mexico. Here we are sampling various fine tequilas at Cava de Oro distillery, and although we look ok here it was soon to get very, very sloppy. Let's just say that fine tequilas taste very smooth and goes down very easily, even when following the directions to sip it rather than shoot it. Hope you had a little siparoo to honor this important day! #tequila #tequilajalisco #nationaltequiladay

Although June is over, Pride is not! Our Pride Festival in San Diego is this coming weekend, and we’re breaking out the rainbows. With all the stupid things happening in the US regarding LGBTQ+ rights, it’s more important than ever to be visible and speak up for those who cannot. Our hearts are breaking for trans people especially, who are being discriminated against in all kinds of heinous ways. So get ready for more rainbows coming your way. 🌈

Father’s Day at the San Diego Zoo last weekend was such a great experience. All the animals were so active! Primates with side eye. Neon-colored tropical birds. Baby leopards playing in the sun. Elephants feeding each other leaves with their trunks. Snoozy lions with their tongues hanging out. We’re fortunate to live very close by and have been coming here since the girls were in strollers. There are literally hundreds of photos - and memories - of visiting this zoo over the last 21 years with these two little nuggets. Even all grown up, it’s a pleasure to see how much they enjoy the creatures and their antics. It’s a perfect place to celebrate being dads and the amazing daughters that gave us the titles!

Caution: some tequila may have been consumed prior to the taking of this photo. Our trip to Tequila, Mexico for a tequila tasting tour was very successful. Distilleries were toured. Tequila was tasted. Much fun was had. We highly recommend! (Mounting metal sculpture of burro optional)
