Hey guys, so by the time you read this, my grandson Legend and I will be off to Lagrange, Ga for a mini road trip. Just a quick getaway to Great Wolf Lodge to checkout their waterpark. I’m trying to squeeze in some last minute summertime fun before it goes away. I’ve never been on a road trip with my grandson, this is my very first time but I do think he will enjoy it. It’s not a long trip, only an hour and a half, so he should be fine. Traveling with a toddler can be a bit challenging, I remember doing that with my own kids but I have a friend coming along that was willing to help me.
Speaking of first times, Buick just released the first-ever 2020 Encore GX and they were so kind to let me test it out for awhile. They dropped it off to me yesterday for my road trip. I was super excited because I’ve never done a review on a Buick vehicle before and when this car arrived, I really liked it! The color is called, White Frost Tricoat. Fully equipped with everything that you need, On-Star, 4G LTE Wi-Fi connectivity, Apple CarPlay, navigation and so much more! Plus, it’s extremely roomy for Legend and his toddler carseat, cargo space for our luggage and did I mention that it’s pretty sharp looking too! I love the peanut butter brown leather interior, it’s very sophisticated looking. I’ve already been running lots of errands in it, handles well and has such a smooth ride to it. More information about the SUV inside, be safe out there and check back for more photos from my trip!
