Orange Lake Resort (Kissimmee, FL – October 2025): Part 1
Hubs’ family has owned a timeshare in Kissimmee, Florida for over 40 years. I’ve been visiting the resort nearly every summer (and occasionally other times of the year) for the last 22 years. We have so many memories with family and friends, and with our own little family, at this spot. When the opportunity to…

Tourist in Our Town: Fort Sumter
reposting from mommamommybwug.blog On a sweltering summer Saturday, we set out on a family adventure to Fort Sumter. Hubs hadn’t visited since he was a child, and I hadn’t been since my early twenties when I was exploring the area with my family. We were confident the boys would at least enjoy the boat ride to the…

Animal Kingdom (June 2024)

Part One: Lake Lure Strong – A Return to the Mountains
I know this blog is called Traveling With My Bwuhs, but this time it was just me and my colleagues. Once a year, we retreat to my boss’s cabin in Lake Lure, NC—a chance to disconnect from work and soak up the quiet of the mountains. Last year, we never made it. Hurricane Helene hit…

NYC Family Bucket List
I’ve been daydreaming about taking a quick trip to New York City with the boys—especially to see The Rockettes. I still remember the magic of watching The Radio City Christmas Spectacular as a kid, and a few years ago Hubs and I were lucky enough to catch them on tour in Charleston. The music, the…
