There are 52 weekends in a year... If you ask me, that means plenty of opportunities for a nice, weekend road trip. I've said it before and I'll say it again -- I love road trips! To get away for a couple of days and be out of the normal routine is good for the body, mind and soul. If I had the money to get away every single weekend, I would be somewhere different all the time. There's one place that I always seem to gravitate towards when it's time for a road trip. That one place I … [Read more...]

A Visit to Both Hamilton, New Jersey & Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the 2017 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring AWD #DriveMazda
October 4, 2017 by 23 Comments
Disclosure: Mazda provided the CX-5 exclusively for this review. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are strictly my own. This past summer, we didn't do much of anything as in vacationing in a resort or visits at the beach. We pretty much hung around my hometown and did things nearby like visit the parks, visits to Rita's for some cold, creamy custards (yum!) and lots of backyard play. My plans for next summer are to take plenty of road trips, one or a few vacations (at the … [Read more...]
Driveshop To The Rescue with the New 2017 Mazda CX-9 Signature Edition #DriveMazda
June 25, 2017 by Leave a Comment
Disclosure: Thanks to Drive Shop for giving me the opportunity to drive the 2017 Mazda CX-9 for 7 days. No compensation was exchanged. Opinions expressed here are always my own. I have a confession to make..... I have a love/hate relationship with my current vehicle. I love that I don't have any payments to make every month since I've had it for over 9 years and I love that my husband is able to fix almost anything that is wrong with the car. But.....I hate the fact that it's an older … [Read more...]
{Review} Road Trippin’ in the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander GT S-AWC #DriveShop #DriveMitsubishi
November 29, 2016 by Leave a Comment
Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mitsubishi, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander for seven days. All opinions are 100% my own. Every time I get a vehicle loaned from Drive Shop, I make it a point to go somewhere miles away so that I can get a good feel for the way the vehicle drives and handles on the road. So that's exactly what I did; I took a small road trip with my youngest to New Jersey to visit my sister for the weekend. I was beyond grateful … [Read more...]

October 21, 2016 by Leave a Comment
Disclosure: Thanks to Drive Shop for giving me the opportunity to drive the 2017 Mazda CX-3 for ten days. Opinions expressed are always my own. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I love going on road trips. I truly enjoy the adventure, the open road and the quality time spent with my loved ones. We can chat, crack jokes, listen to music and even play games. A few weekends ago, my family and I packed up the Mazda CX-3 and took off to Lancaster, Pennsylvania for a fun 80's themed … [Read more...]
Weekend Getaway to Hershey Park in the 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE #DriveMitsubishi #HersheyPark
September 6, 2016 by 5 Comments
Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mitsubishi, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE for one full week. All opinions are 100% my own. No monetary compensation was received. I'm accustomed to driving an SUV since I've owned a Kia Sorento for nine years so I wasn't quite excited about driving around in a Mitsubishi Mirage for a week. Although I was definitely grateful to Drive Shop for providing the Mirage for our Hershey Park road trip, I really … [Read more...]
Back-To-School Shopping with the 2016 Mazda CX-9 Signature AWD @MazdaUSA #DriveMazda #DriveShop
August 31, 2016 by 1 Comment
Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mazda, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2016 Mazda CX-9 for one whole week. All opinions are 100% my own. I dread back-to-school shopping every year like the plague! The running around, trying to score deals, comparing prices and the crowds are not my thing at all. Heck - walking though the mall is not my thing neither but it's inevitable. It's something I must do. I don't want my kids going back to school with nothing. What kind of mother … [Read more...]

Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mazda, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2016 Mazda CX-5 for one whole week. All opinions are 100% my own. Last week, I had the amazing privilege to test drive this blue beauty: A 2016 Mazda CX-5 for a full seven days. I test drove one other vehicle a few years back, so I was beyond excited to test drive this sporty crossover since we are in the market to either purchase or lease a new vehicle within the next year … [Read more...]
Lancaster, PA – Road Trip With The Family: Part 2. VW Style
August 14, 2010 by Leave a Comment
Disclosure: The Volkswagen Routan was given to us as a loaner for review purposes only. It was made possible by the MWW Group. Thank you so much for making our road trip "extra special" Amy. ;) OK, so it's been a long 49 days since our family road trip with the star of the trip, the Volkswagen Routan. I know, I know. That was way over a month ago and you must be thinking, ok, why is she writing about this now? Honestly, life got in the way especially when there's kids involved and … [Read more...]
Road Trip With The Family: Heading to Washington, D.C. VW Routan Style
June 23, 2010 by 10 Comments
Well folks, it's that time for families to start on their new ventures now that school is out! With that in mind, my family and I will be going on a small road trip to Pennsylvania and we're making two stops along the way: Lancaster & Philadelphia. I have family in both cities (my Dad is also buried in Lancaster) so it's mainly to visit family and of course to get away for several days. Our last stop before heading back to New York will be Washington, D.C. It will be the first time for … [Read more...]
