Kowboys Summer Essentials

Summer is my favorite time of year.  Just laying around in the sun, enjoying road trips, boating, and running on the beach!

Here are a couple of things that I have to have during the warm summer months to keep me cool and comfortable.

Amazon PRIME Day 2019

I have an obsession with Amazon, and since their annual PRIME day is next week, July 15 & 16, obviously I have to share my list of go-to items.  I thought it would be fun to share what I’m hoping to get based on different areas of interest.

I’ve tried the whole make a wish list and then see if they appear on PRIME day, but that hasn’t really worked for me.  What does work for me to make sure I don’t forget to look for everything is to make a good old fashioned list.  Knowing that a lot of name brand items are not usually on a huge discount, I like to have a list of ideas.  So below is all the items I will be watching and would recommend seeing if they are on a good discount.  HAPPY SHOPPING!!

Carry on Essentials for a Long Vacation

How I pack my carry on for a long trip, but a short flight is quite easy; it starts with the bag.  Our next trip is for a two week vacation but only about a 6-hour flight, which is relativly short.  When it’s an extended vacation like this, I usually pack a larger carry-on plus a checked bag.  So my carry on like most people is my most valuable things and necessities.  For international flights, I do change up my carry on bag and my packing in general but more of that to come later.
