Best Mix Ever

I am obsessed with my Pandora Radio channels. Have you heard the Summer Hits of the 90s Mix? It's amazing. Bruce Hornsby, yes please! And in my opinion, it's totally worth paying the Pandora One upgrade to nix the advertisments. What are you listening to these days? I'm always in need of new writing music (I can only listen to the Amelie and Marie Antionette soundtracks so many times).

A Sound of Music Moment....

I just discovered this {via Lenorenevermore}. It totally made my morning.

Road Trip

This recent post got me thinking about my upcoming trip to visit family in south Florida. So, there's been a change of plans..... Instead of flying, I'm packing my car and hitting the road. I'm blessed to have a supportive husband and telecommuting job, so in the middle of March I'll be leaving New Jersey and traveling throughout America's beautiful east coast for about four or five weeks. I'm going to take this opportunity to visit some close friends and family, clear my head and chase nice weather.

In my tentative road trip plans? First and foremost, spending about two weeks of quality time with my parents. Then, sometime along my drive, exploring the towns of Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Asheville, Chattanooga, Wilmington, Richmond, Atlanta, Augusta, Orlando, Washington D.C., Baltimore and Nashville. I'm so excited to revisit some of my favorite spots and discovering new ones on the way. I love to drive, and I'm in the midst of making my road trip mixes & uploading new NPR shows to my iPod.

What are your favorite music/radio shows to listen to in the car? 

On the G.S. Parkway, I'll be blaring this song.
