Route 66 Road Trip → Cadillac Ranch • Amarillo, Texas

March 2, 2022

The Cadillac Ranch was a must stop for us! We spent two nights in Amarillo. Arriving late, after 10 o’clock. The eating places were closed. But a bar was open across from the hotel. We assumed we could get food there but in Texas bars can just serve booze. Anyhow, next time we do it.Read the Post

Miles made arrangements for a surprise sunset picnic and we enjoyed antipasto, sandwiches of cured Italian meats, and the finest Italian vino. The space was magnificent with lights strung through the trees like in a movie. When we were doneRead the Post

Pip Pip Cheerio!

Did ya know “pip pip” mimics the double honk you’d here on a motorcar in the early 20th century? It's an upperclass British coloqualism for farewell.🎩 I learned that because we're Downton Abbey superfans! And Miles and I visited Highclere Castle — the real life Downton in Yorkshire.📺 It was one of the best days of my life! Full of intention, serenity, gratitude, luxury, playfulness, and beauty.🧚 Pure magic!🪄 Just like life is supposed to be.♥️

I love you! Pip pip. 😘 Gigi

Hello hello! Bonjour beauties! I thought the fir Hello hello! Bonjour beauties! 

I thought the first week of Spring would be a nice time to put up a new little hello & welcome post about us . . . 

I'm Jennifer and together with my husband, Miles, and our furry princess, Miabelle, we’re collectively known as Jet Set Jiles. Jennifer + Miles = Jiles — a nickname we got when we were dating that stuck. 

We consciously create a life filled with beauty at home and on our travels. 

We enjoy practicing the art of living well, and creating daily rituals to thrive & nourish the soul. 

And while we’ve always traveled, entertained, explored, shopped and dined well, since Miles' retirement, we've incorporated “snowbirding" into our repertoire.

Also, we’re Downton Abby super fans. When Miles retired it was the first show we binged. And then we booked tickets to London to go see the place in person! Highclere Castle, where they filmed Downton, is just the perfect day trip! 

We love sharing all of our discoveries, and invite you to come along for the ride. 

😘 Jennifer, Miles, & Miabelle 

📍 Washington, DC
🏡 Old Town ALX, Virginia

📸One of the most memorable and best days of my life was when we visited Highclere Castle! I’ll post more on that soon! ♥️

📸We didn’t have Miabelle yet when we visited Highclere. We got her Christmas Eve 2020. Swipe to see her confused but pretty little face right when we brought her home.🐾 

📸 And the last pic is us out for family walk in Old Town. The beautiful spot we call home.♥️

On our first Valentines Day as a couple, we decide On our first Valentines Day as a couple, we decided to keep it low key. After all, there can be lots of pressure around Valentine’s Day! And no new couple needs that!

A movie at my home was the plan. At my Torpedo Factory townhouse (we still had both our townhouses then). Cheese and charcuterie. A fire in the fireplace. Ya know. 

I went to Harris Teeter to buy some pate, brie, and the likes. 

As I was standing in line. I saw beautiful red roses in a basket in the line next to me. And I wondered if Miles was going to give me flowers? He told me early on that he really doesn’t give flowers. So I was prepared for that. 

As I was having my thoughts. I looked up and there he was. My then boyfriend, Miles. And those red roses that I thought were so beautiful were for me! 🌹

I seem to remember too that he was bummed to get caught. But he did think it was rather convenient to send the flowers along with me in my car since I was going straight there with the other stuff. 😂 

I’m so grateful for the flowers. And for the fact that I thought to take a pic. I love remembering this every year! 📸 

Love you so much @milesdejiles thanks for all the flowers and love you’ve given me! 🥰
A Valentine’s poem from the Furry Princess . . . A Valentine’s poem from the Furry Princess . . .
Ten days until Valentine’s Day. And oh how I use Ten days until Valentine’s Day. And oh how I used to dread that day before Miles. 

I just want to remind everyone. I didn’t meet Miles until I was 34ish and Miles was 52ish.

If you have someone you really love to celebrate with: fabulous. If not: celebrate you! And your fur baby, if you have one! 

Don’t give your power away to a day. Hold true to the fact that you are special, divine, and worthy of a magical miraculous love. 

Wait for the one. I promise. It’s with it. 

😘

One year ago. On our two week long, cross country, One year ago. On our two week long, cross country, drive to Las Vegas. We were so ready to just get there. To the bungalow in Summerlin. To settle in. Not unpack and pack up the car again. 

We were gonna push through. Almost there. One more ice tea from McDonalds. I thought. 

I made the wrong turn to get the ice tea. And we ended up in Sedona. 

It is a really beautiful spot. A picture perfect detour. 

And the next day. Before leaving for our final stretch through the desert to Las Vegas, I got my ice tea at the only place where McDonalds Golden Arches are actually turquoise.
