I love being a mom and I love my job, but I admit it: I would fish for a living if I could! HA!

Paws Up For a Purpose With Yakima Valley Pet Rescue Was A Hit [PHOTOS]
Yakima Valley Pet Rescue is an excellent cause. They help find homes for thousands of animals. Dogs, cats and even birds. They had fundraising event, Paws Up for a Purpose, on Saturday in the parking lot of Hop Nation. It was fun and they raised some dough for the animals.
The Best Rest Area Across Five States Is In Washington
I most recently went on a crazy road trip across five states. I started in Washington, went through Oregon, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. Most of that drive on Interstate 84 is nothing but desert. Crazy boring desert. There is also a lot to see -- even in the desert -- but, sometimes when you get a little drowsy from driving and seeing the exact same sagebrush for 700 miles.
That's when you have to sto

What Old Games Do You Still Have?
I most recently went through an old storage unit. I could not believe all the old games I had. They brought back a lot of memories. They were used so much when I was a kid that they are all taped up from me breaking them.
Riding The Iron Horse To The Red Horse Was A Blast For Bike Nights
Whether you went through the Ellensburg Canyon or you took Manastash, it was an amazing ride. Central Washington Bike Nights on Tuesday (July 11) was another great time. Some good friends and a lot of new faces from that side of Central Washington made it that much more enjoyable!
Green River Tunnels Haven’t Changed Since Journey’s ‘Faithfully’ Video
I grew up in the desert in Wyoming. The only green I actually saw was when I'd take a trip to like Utah or Colorado. But even in all of that brown sagebrush, there are some amazing things to see. Like the famous Green River Wyoming tunnels. I will never forget when Journey made their video "Faithfully." In Wyoming, we were like "OMG, those are our tunnels in the video!' Sure enough!
The Fries At Burger Broiler Are Almost Like Animal Fries From In-N-Out Burger
I am a huge fan of In-N-Out Burger. They really do have the best fries on the planet. They are filled with some amazing stuff -- onions, secret sauce, bacon ... Hell, I have no idea what is in them exactly, but they are they best.
What Have You Kept Over The Years That Is Hard To Trash?
I am not one to keep a whole lot. In fact, I most recently went through a storage unit that I have had for 10 years and trashed a lot of stuff. I came to a box that had all of my old Tiger Beat and Teen Beat posters in them. I admit that most of these kept me going while I was younger since I lived 16 miles out on a desolate Wyoming road.
We All Know CDs Melt In The Sun — Mine Melted Underneath My Seat!
I know better than to leave my CDs in my car. I have almost all of them in a case so they are safe. However, I took a road trip and had them slung out all over the place. (I am messy when I travel.) I thought that I had picked them up, but I hadn't.

Would You Want to Drive An Electric Car? [POLL]
Having just returned from a long, summer road trip, I'm more in love with my car than ever before.
But some news that broke while I was gone has me thinking road trips might be changing soon.
