7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 14) – the “running away to Michigan” edition

— 1 — ROAD TRIP!  There’s something about getting out of my typical environments and just being away that restores my perspective like nothing else.  I only have a couple of days, so I hit the road this afternoon and headed up to the CityFlats hotel.  I love this place.  Environmentally friendly, classy, and fun….

Shara and I went to the Windy City today.  We didn’t have a plan for what we would do when we got there.  We mostly just drove around until we found a place to park, and wandered. We ended up at Navy Pier.  Worked our way slowly thru the Stained Glass Museum.  Learned a few…

Meet Happy
Simple Felicity is, at its heart, a blog based on the unshakeable belief that happiness really isn't all that complicated. It's often found in the simplest of things: good food, good books, and good company. So those are the things I write about, along with a few other things that really matter to me, including faith and feminism. A bit about me: My name is Happy. I have an amazing talent for misplacing my keys, a deep appreciation for whomever looked at the coffee bean and thought, "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I roasted this?", and road trips to Michigan are pretty much my favorite.
