When your life is over, your time on earth is referred to as “date of birth – date of death”

Your entire life and everything you’ve accomplished is defined by one little dash.

Seize the moment, don’t wait until tomorrow, and most of all, be proud of how you #LiveYourDash

While most travelers flock to Florida’s beaches, this adventurous crew does the opposite – leaving the Sunshine State behind when temperatures soar.

From beachside sunsets in my Florida home to mountainside mornings across America, I’ll share how each day becomes an opportunity to fill that little dash with meaning. We’ll explore pet-friendly adventures, practical tips for traveling with a menagerie, and reflections on living deliberately.

This unconventional family tackles the challenges and joys of pet-friendly travel across America’s diverse landscapes. From finding accommodations that welcome the entire menagerie to discovering hidden trails perfect for paws of all sizes.

Join us as we share practical tips, memorable mishaps, and the special moments that make traveling with pets both challenging and infinitely rewarding. Whether you’re a fellow pet parent planning your first trip or just enjoy vicarious adventures, there’s a story here for everyone.

This isn’t about extravagant bucket lists or Instagram-perfect moments. It’s about authentic connection, everyday joy, and making conscious choices about how we spend our precious time.

What are YOU doing today to make your dash meaningful?
