Welcome to Rustic Kate, we're glad you're here! We are two friends named Kate and like you, we're new here - to online blogging and digital content production. It's no secret March 2020 changed our lives in some of the best and worst ways possible. Pandemic life was ... I mean is ... stressful, confusing and exhausting. In many ways, the past 18 months made us all become a little more introspective and think about how we were spending our time and what actually makes us happy. As it turns out, both of us were in the exact same place in life, and we decided to try to figure it out together. So what makes us happy? Wine. Luckily, Virginia has a whole host of wineries to visit. History. This area is also chock full of historic sites to explore. Creativity. Capturing memories and coming up with different ways to share our findings. Now, we're focused on exploring life outside the city beyond our everyday hectic work lives. Trips to historic sites and never-ending stops along the way teach us about the history and culture that existed before us. Perhaps the best part is the refueling ... not just putting gas in the car, but reconnecting with nature, enjoying a nice winery or coffee shop, and refocusing on life outside of the constant demands of being an adult. These were things we generally enjoyed before the pandemic, but now they provide the perfect outlet to build an ever better, healthier life. So why not do more of it? And why not share our findings with others? We saw a quote recently that said, "write down the life you want to see, and you'll begin to live it." So that’s what this site is all about: balancing work and play through our passion for history and creativity. Capturing the memories and sharing new places we find with friends. And hopefully learning a thing or two along the way! Cheers.
