Whenever friends are in town and ask which museums are best for little kiddies, I always recommend the National Air and Space Museum and the National Museum of Natural History. I figured it was time to try out some new museums and see whether there were any that I could add to the list so [Read More]
Does it bother you when you buy something at one place, only to learn it is half the price at another store? What if you learn it’s FREE? Ahhhhh! That’s what happened to me upon entering Storyville in Woodlawn, MD. There are a couple of very similar places in Maryland, including one that’s $6 per [Read More]
There is nothing like a pool in the summer time. The warmth of the sun plus the coolness of the water equal a perfect combination. I enjoy pools, beaches and waterparks best on a warm but slightly overcast day. Such a day presented itself and we took the bait! We drove around the Beltway to [Read More]

Not to mention how long lines eat up precious play time. So, instead of heading down to the Tidal Basin this weekend for the National Cherry [Read More]
80 acres is a lot of space and this facility makes use of all of it! The Prince George’s County Sports and Learning Complex is one of our favorite places to go year around. In the winter, when we miss the warm weather, we head to their heated pool. Complete with a lazy river, [Read More]
