How Do You Do It!?: Houston to Hartford

Houston to Hartford

Mr. Darcy arrived at my doorstep this morning to escort me to the airport. Sean and I are notorious for our road trips and he has to get up early for work anyway so I figured it was more than appropriate that we take a mini trip to the airport to catch up. A good conversation with a close friend does wonders for you. After a drive through starbucks (Grande Mocha) and striping through security I am ready to enjoy my first Jet blue flight with my jet pass.

I am so glad I got to add Houston to the beginning of my travel plans. Not only did I have to bonus of seeing my Husband (and his new bat moblie the 2010 Camaro) but I also got to see my in-laws, their lake house, my parents, grandmothers, brothers, sister in law, and my ADORABLE niece and nephew, and of course Louie the dog and Nahweeta the cat.

Waiting in JFK at the gate for my flight to Boston. Cheers to small women in tall shoes carrying ridiculously large designer bags, fresh healthy food in an airport, copious outlets for tech savvy travelers, and recycling by the trash bins I LOVE NY.

delicious and nutritious

Tonight after a bus ride I will be in Hartford CT staying with my adventurous friend Jennifer Nario, an artist and educator who currently teaches at a performing arts magnet school teaching preK -8^th grade drama. From the moment we met my freshman year, Jennifer has been telling me I need to be active and change the world. She seizes every opportunity that comes her way and is a truly inspirational woman.
