Most of you know that we recently purchased our retirement home in another city (3 hours away!). Moving to a city that we know very little about has been challenging, but we are quickly learning all of the ins-and-outs, as well as finding out the favorite things to do from the locals! We depended on Yelp, and of course Google searches to find things to do. We also enjoyed just driving around – kind of like a treasure hunt – to see what we could find on our own.
I really wish I had known about the Residence Inn Thrival Guide after when we bought our house, as it sure would have made it easier to find the things we NEEDED to know as well as just fun activities, dining, etc.
What would you like to share with visitors to your town? I just left a couple of tips – one for a yummy restaurant called Crawdaddy’s, and another for a really fun place for the whole family – Clay Cafe. It is really helpful to see what advice and tips others have left as well.
The Grand Prize is a 4-night stay at a Residence Inn plus a Platinum Marriott Rewards membership. During the Twitter party, the prizes will consist of three (3) 2 night stays at Residence Inn!

Well I think there is no better place to eat than home! But if we are talking about taking them to a restaurant then here is my answer: we are from a small town in Texas and the selection of places is not that big, we like taking our kids to eat breakfast at a small coffee shop here in town, it is a family own business who serves home-cook meals, its almost like if we are eating at home 🙂
Those are my favorite kinds of restaurants!
