  • TipToe through the tulips. 
🌷 
Most people brought their mothers flowers on Mother's Day.... 
We brought Mother to the flowers. 
🌷 
We took Momma K to the @jpniagaratulipexperience so she could pick her own flowers for mother's day. (Nick did the actual Picking).
🌷 
This tulip field is located in beautiful Niagara farm country in the town of Pelham. The experience allows you to immerse yourself in fields of colour and enjoy the millions of tulips, and pick your own glorious flower bouquet. 
🌷 
📍  1934 Centre Street, North Pelham

  • Today we celebrated Momma K with a day trip to share some  experiences none of us has done before. 
Our first stop,  was a surprise stop at @whitemeadowsfarms where we enjoyed a lovely Maple Tasting Board. 
The maple inspired charcuterie boards come beautifully presented with an array of sweet & Savoury items to nibble on and enjoy. 
Gourmet cheeses,  maple summer sausage,  jams,  jellies, maple mustard,  bbq sauce,  buttermilk pancakes,  and of course the 4 grades of their delicious maple syrup. 
.
The maple tasting boards are a delightful alternative to other culinary experiences in the Niagara region.
📍 Location: 2519 Effingham St., Pelham
Walk-ins are welcome, or you can book ahead to ensure a time slot.

  • The lighter side of taking a roadtrip. 
🔥
We will go out of our way to visit niche museums when we travel.  So,  when we discovered the Zippo Lighter Museum wasn't too far from where we were staying,  we made the 45-minute drive (in the opposite direction) to check it out.
🦛
Set against the backdrop of the Allegheny National Forest,  the Zippo - Case museum is located in Bradford, PA. 
🔥
Here,  you can explore the history of this iconic lighter brand and Case brand knives. Learn about the origins, craftsmanship,  their place in pop culture,  and the many creative designs they have made over many years. 
They also have an "It Works, or We Fix It Free" -  Zippo's famous repair center. 
🦛
The museum is absolutely free to explore,  as well as a large gift shop where you can purchase various merchandise,  including customized lighters.

  • Make em Laugh 
🤣
The best museums not only provide you with a lesson in history but also draw you in and keep you engaged as you learn. 
.
This is the key feature of The National Comedy Centre in Jamestown, NY.  (located a few blocks away from the Lucy-Desi Museum)
.
The NCC opened its doors in 2018 and features thousands of artefacts, props, costumes, sets, and personal items from significant figures in American comedy. 
🤡
The museum includes over 50 unique and exciting immersive experiences through the history of comedy. You are given a personal electronic wristband (laugh band) that helps tailor your experience to your individual tastes in comedy. 
🤣
With so many exhibits, features, and interactive activities, you will want to dedicate a fair chunk of your day to your visit to maximize your experience.

  • At the Lucy & Desi museum you can recreate your own version of the iconic "I Love Lucy" VitaMeataVegamin commercial. 
They provide you with a set,  script,  and props... You provide the action.

@nick_kulnies put his acting skills on display as he hams it up for the camera.

  • I Love Lucy 
❤️
When you visit Lucy's hometown,  the Lucy & Desi Museum(s) is a must do. 
The Museum is divided into two distinct sections dedicated to the life,  career,  and history of Lucille Ball. 
❤️
The museums house sets from the I Love Lucy show,  props,  equipment, and costumes from various shows,  movies and television appearances she has made in her career. 
❤️
There are also a number of sets for photo opps where your favourite husband can show off their inner Lucy,  including an opportunity to recreate your own vitaMeatavegamin commercial.

  • Life with Lucy. 
❤️
Celoron, NY, is a small community on the outskirts of Jamestown, located on Chautauqua Lake. 
This is where Lucille Ball grew up and spent most of her childhood. 
📍
In a lakefront park named "Lucille Ball Memorial Park," you will find two very different statues of Lucy. 
One is the original statue nicknamed "Scary Lucy," which illustrates her famous "vitameatavegamin" scene. 
The other -known as "Lovely Lucy," is a more flattering depiction. 
A few blocks from the park is 59 Lucy Lane—the home where Lucille Ball grew up. The garage has been painted to resemble her iconic blue with a white polka dot dress. 
🏠 
In Lake View Cemetery in Jamestown, you will find Lucy's grave site. There are red hearts with the signature L on the roadway to guide you to her grave. She was initially buried in Hollywood, but her family decided to relocate her back to her hometown with her family.
❤️
