Rise and Shine is my way of starting the day with you – almost as if we’re chatting over a hot cup of coffee or tea! I share my favorite deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help you save time, money or energy. Published in the morning on Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How are you doing today? I’m getting a late start today. Once school starts I’m hoping my morning schedule solidifies a little bit, but until then, it’s a bit of a moving target. 🙂 I hope your day is off to a good start.
And speaking of getting your day off to a good start. I start almost every morning by reading my daily email from theSkimm for today’s top-level news. I’ve been a subscriber for probably 8 months now and it’s been so consistently awesome that I still enjoy it daily.
Staring today and running through this weekend, ALL 412 national parks will be waiving the entrance fees for the National Park Service Birthday Centennial! You can find a small list of special events and programs here or check the #FindYourPark website for a full list. The National Park Service also has an easy-to-use directory of parks by name, location, activity and topic.
We have just spent the last year traveling to many of these National Parks – they are incredible! I hope you get the chance to visit a park near you!
