Citygirl becomes a cowgirl

Posted by Staff in Luxury Monday, Texas

I am known for not being an outdoors-woman….I’m more well known for how well I can work a city.  So when I told my friends and family I was going to spend a few days on a guest ranch in Texas…the immediate reaction was to get me strait to the hospital. What they did not know is that I had picked a guest ranch that catered to my luxury seeking heart, Wildcatter Ranch…as the owners call it “the resort ranch on the texas range.”

Located about two hours northwest of Dallas…or the metroplex, as the locals say….the Wildcatter Ranch is 1,500 acres of pure Texan bliss. The resort consists of 16 uniquely decorated suites grouped in four cabins. As with all elements of the resort, the rooms are the perfect marriage of luxury and western wilderness. Each suite has it’s own unique theme which reflects a distinct chapter of local history, personified through antique photos and memorabilia.

Wildcatter has taken every effort to make sure that guests remain entertained and pampered throughout their stay.  Each morning starts with a buffet breakfast in which the activities directors take time to chat with each guest to plan out their day.  The resident cowboy Jay also makes the rounds to answer any questions that you might have on how a ranch works.

For the love of denim

Posted by Staff in Packing, Tip of the Week

Although I love jeans and wear them practically every day….sometimes I have to make the hard decision to leave my beloved blue friends behind.

If I am traveling for a long time  or on a trip that involves washing clothes while away….that’s usually when Mr. Denim gets ix-nay-ed.  The reason being that denim takes too long to dry, it’s heavy and bulky.

Sorry my dear jeans…I hope this tip does not end our long love affair…
