Dirt Road Adventures: Memorial Day Weekend Adventures & Sales
Happy Sunday, and welcome to Dirt Road Adventures! This is where we review all the exciting events behind the scenes, on the website, and the sources of inspiration I discovered online during the past week. This weekly recap ensures you don’t miss any of our adventures here at the end of our Dirt Road.

Hey Friends,
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. We’ve been at the beach most of the week, and the weather has been perfect.
I brought all my DIY Serena & Lily Dupes with me and love how they are looking in the beach cottage. In addition, I took some time to curate some of my favorite deals for this Memorial Day weekend, and you will see the links below.
I’ve been struggling with a cough since we arrived, and as the week has progressed, it has gotten worse. Long story short, I have phenomonia and am not enjoying the holiday weekend as I had planned. So I’m keeping today’s post short and sweet. The new medications seem to be working, so I hope to be better soon.
