Adventure Woman Loves the Royal Palms Resort!

Step back into old world Phoenician luxury and glamour at the impeccable Royal Palms. This hotel is a special and unforgettable treat and retreat. Unlike many of the newer hotels in the Phoenix-area, the Royal Palms has a warm, cozy and personal feeling to it. Perhaps it is because the resort started out as a private residence first and later evolved into a fabulous destination hotel. The mansion was originally built in 1929, as the winter home of New Yorkers Delos and Florence Willard Cooke, and was transformed into the Royal Palms Inn in 1949.

Adventure Woman Loves the Cubs!

The Chicago Cubs are arguably the most lovable team in baseball. No, we all know they don't have the best record, but perhaps that's why they mean so much to us. With the Cubs Convention just finishing two weeks ago, Cubs fever is back in the air with that 'hope springs eternal' belief that this could be our year. Perhaps it is that Midwest confidence in the possible, when history has shown its not always probable, that keeps us cheering for the Cubs.

March 4th is the start of Spring Training for the Cubs. Spring Training is held in the warm weather of Mesa, Arizona. Click here for the full spring schedule. Regardless, of the Cubs' record, no one can deny they are a winning team.

Their charitable contributions are impressive and their commitment to the community undeniable. At the Convention the Cubs management only upped their commitment to philanthropic and charitable involvement for 2012. And for that alone, the Cubs are big winners.

As the Cubs enter the 2012 season lets hope (once again) that they are winners on (as well as off) the field.

Go Cubbies!

Adventure Woman Loves the Scottsdale Horse Show!

Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show

February 16 – 26, 2012

The Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show is one of the most regal events in Arizona (or in the USA for that matter). This premiere horse show dates back to 1955, when it first began at the Arizona Biltmore Hotel. Over the years the show has grown from 50 horses to over 2000, and has acquired a legendary reputation for attracting the crème de la crème in the Arab horse world. Today the Arabian Horse Show is held at Westworld in Scottsdale and attracts trainers, breeders, and the owners from all 50 states and over a dozen countries.


The horse show is well-worth the visit - the only other Arab horse show this grand is in Dubai. If you're in the area, make the effort to visit one of the most spectacular events in the Southwest. For more information visit AdventureWoman.com

Good Bye to the Holidays and 2011

Austin, Texas proved to be a wonderful place to spend the holidays. There is so much good cheer, great shopping delicious restaurants and cozy cafes that its hard to spend a minutes bored or unhappy. Christmas Eve was spent at the wonderful Barton Creek Resort (what a fantastic Christmas shop) and Christmas Day Brunch at the Four Seasons. Everything was spectacularly beautiful (except the guy who wore old jeans and a scrappy tee-shirt saying, 'I am a Pick-up Artist.' You have to wonder why - oh why - someone would wear such a get-up to Christmas Brunch. Ugh!) I mean show a little respect... really.

Well, it is sad to see 2011 go. It was an eventful and exciting year and it appears 2012 only has more fabuluosity and adventurousity in store for all of us. Buckle your seat-belts!!

So let be thankful for our 2011 blessings and a big cheers to 2012!
