Ireland in the Sunshine: Our Summer Travel Adventure

August 27, 2026 By Annie Meadows

Moher

While Rick took you through our unforgettable Alaskan cruise, I get to share the second half of our summer travel adventures: Ireland! And let me tell you, we struck total gold with the weather across the pond. It hardly rained at all because they were experiencing an unbelievable heat wave with blue skies and sunshine the entire time.

Rick’s “Kind of” Local Lowdown: Our New Favorite Travel Hack ✈️🌴

June 4, 2026 By Rick Meadows

Breeze Airways

As the summer heats up, Annie and I are always looking for a quick getaway to recharge. But to be completely honest, we’ve never paid much attention to discount airlines. Like most people, we’ve heard the horror stories of hidden fees, cramped seats, and endless delays.

That all changed recently when Breeze Airways expanded its footprint at RDU. When we saw they added a direct flight to Key West—one of our absolute favorite places on earth—we knew we had to check it out.

Rick’s Local Lowdown: My Favorite Way to Outsource the Dirty Work 🍖🧼

May 4, 2026 By Rick Meadows

Local Lowdown With Rick Grill Cleaning

If you know me, you know I live for my Traeger smoker. There is nothing better than a slow-smoked meal on a Saturday afternoon. But there is also nothing worse than the realization that the grill is a greasy, carbon-caked mess and needs a deep clean before the first burger hits the grate.

I used to spend my Sunday mornings scrubbing grease and vacuuming ash, but I finally found a better way: NC Grill Rescue.

Rick’s (Not So) Local Lowdown: Cap Mansion Resort in St. Lucia

February 1, 2026 By Rick Meadows

St Lucia

Sweet Annie and I recently checked a big one off the bucket list—celebrating her birthday in St. Lucia—and I just had to share. Don’t worry, next month we’ll be back to highlighting local favorites. But even if travel isn’t on your calendar right now, I hope you’ll enjoy this little digital getaway.
