Money Talks podcast: P & D visit Niagara Falls
A firsthand look at one of North America's most iconic destinations.
We’re not waiting for the perfect time to make memories.
Because there is no perfect time.
And so I pulled Parker out of school last Friday for a planned absence. Adventure couldn’t — and shouldn’t — wait.
Last weekend, we traveled to Buffalo and Niagara Falls, just the two of us. We spent three days and two nights exploring, playing, shopping, swimming, eating, laughing and bonding.
We’ve promised each other we’ll travel together to more new locations — but I’m questioning where Parker wants to go next.
In Episode 24, we’re recording from our hotel room in Buffalo, fresh off a jam-packed weekend in one of the country’s most scenic locations.
