Day Tripping: Rediscovering Your Own Backyard
Manage episode 479112693 series 3520794
Ever feel like you need a getaway yesterday—but without the airport drama, packing chaos, or actually, y'know… leaving town? Same. That’s why we were downright shocked to discover Rob Wallace Park, a stunning hidden gem just 25 minutes from home that somehow managed to stay off our radar for over a decade. (Rude.)
Armed with nothing but leftover snacks from the fridge and a fierce need to escape our home office walls, we set out on an unplanned adventure—and ended up stumbling into pure magic. Picture this: forest bathing with chirping birds, turtles popping up to say hi, and a 70-foot-deep quarry formed by accident (because of course it was). It was equal parts history, serenity, and “why didn’t we do this sooner?!”
This episode is your reminder that peace, beauty, and a little soul refresh don't require plane tickets or perfectly curated Pinterest itineraries. Sometimes, all it takes is stepping outside, being present, and letting nature do her thing.
We’re spilling the tea on what made this park a total win—think accessible trails, clean bathrooms (praise hands!), educational wildlife stations, and tools like AllTrails and Eventbrite to help you find your next local escape.
So, Divas, here's your challenge: what magic might be hiding in your own backyard? It’s time to be a tourist in your own town. You never know what you’ll find… but we’re betting it’s just what your soul’s been craving.
