My mom was in her mid-twenties during the second World War. She was a nurse that was stationed on land just outside of Pearl Harbor. I di...
Visit Puerto Vallarta
By :
Hallidae Thomason
The best benefit of my job as a journalist is that I often get to travel to write for magazines and travel websites.

In the past year, I have traveled to a fair number of places, but none have matched the beauty of Puerto Vallarta.
If you have ever been to Puerto Vallarta, then you know the beauty that I am talking ab...
