There’s nothing better than waking up to birds singing and warm sunshine. I guess that’s left me feeling extra motivated lately because I’ve got a great week to share with you. For starters, Little Indiana was back on PBS as part of The Weekly Special to highlight the fun in Cambridge City, Indiana (this is part of Indiana’s Antique Alley don’t’cha know).

There’s also a great coffee shop in Nashville, a snazzy women’s boutique in Salem, and so much more. I hope this week helps motivate you to travel to the small towns around you, too. If you thought this week was the cat’s pajamas, just wait until you see next week.
