🚗 The Best Weekend Trips from Frederick, MD (All Within 3 Hours!)
I just published a brand new blog post rounding up the best weekend trips from Frederick, MD — all within 3 hours or less! From chocolate in Hershey to river tubing in Harpers Ferry and cozy cabin getaways at Deep Creek Lake, these are all places I’ve personally loved visiting (except Charlottesville — still on my list!). Whether you're planning a girls’ getaway, family fun, date weekend, or just need to escape town for a bit, this list has you totally covered.👉 Read the full post here »

🎯Sponsor Spotlight - Local Testimonial
After one of those wild windstorms we had recently, one of A&S Construction’s clients noticed a piece of roof flashing had come loose. Seems minor, but little things like that can lead to big problems if you ignore them.
Sandra & her crew were out there the very next day—secured it, cleaned up the old piece, & made sure everything was good to go.
As KJ L. put it:
“A & S Construction was attentive to our needs… They replaced the piece & even took the old one with them!” 🙌
Let this be your friendly nudge: what’s one small home fix you’ve been putting off? Roofing, gutters, siding—Sandra's team does it all, & they do it right.

🐾Sarge’s Corner
This Chuckit! Ball Launcher is seriously a lifesaver for me. Sarge has so much energy! Walks are close to impossible because he pulls like he’s training for a dog sled race. With the Chuckit!, I can stand in one spot, launch the ball way further than I can throw it on my own, & give him the workout he needs—without wrecking my shoulder or touching a slobbery tennis ball. 👉»Chuckit!
