Enterprise and OneRepublic 2019 “Share the Code. Hit the Road” Concert

What would you do if you had the opportunity to attend a concert by a Grammy-nominated band, where the only other attendees are people who were awarded tickets simply by performing acts of kindness? You’d jump at the chance, just like we did last Friday, when Enterprise Rent-a-Car partnered with us to attend OneRepublic’s concert for their “Share the Code. Hit the Road” campaign!

Enterprise and OneRepublic joined together for Enterprise’s second annual “Share the Code. Hit the Road.” event, focused on celebrating kindness. Occurring the same week as National Kindness Day, it’s got a simple premise: be recognized as someone out there doing good in the community, and you will receive three codes which you then share with three others you want to celebrate for their acts of kindness. Those three each get three codes to share, and so forth, until all codes are redeemed, taking the term “paying it forward” to a new level.

The process to request a ticket was pretty simple. Above is a peek at the online form, where you are required to enter information on who you would invite. Scattered throughout the venue on Friday night were big flat screens sharing these direct testaments. It was easy to see why people were invited, and the stories, however brief, were inspiring.

Pretty cool, right? We got to attend this one of a kind concert in the desert at the renown Pappy and Harriet’s in Pioneertown, California. The venue is a bit out in the middle of nowhere, but it’s worth the drive.

Before the concert began, we were provided food and drink coupons so we had the chance to try out the restaurant before we headed out back to the show. The show was held outside, allowing for a bigger audience yet it was a very intimate affair, with short lines for food or the bars.

Our VIP tickets allowed us access to a special viewing platform, where we had a spectacular view of not only the stage (with another screen displaying more guest stories) and the band, but the surrounding desert. The sunset alone was worth the drive!

The opening act was Jamie N. Commons, a charismatic singer whose accent and ballad-style songs quickly warmed up the crowd. OneRepublic came onstage about 30 minutes later to an excited crowd, and they jumped immediately into popular hit songs. They’ve got two new singles that just came out, “Wanted” and “Rescue Me.” My favorite song of theirs is “Counting Stars,” but I’m also a big fan of the cello music in “Apologize.” (Secret weird fact about me: I would LOVE to learn how to play the cello.)

Enterprise was founded in 1957 by Jack Taylor, with its flagship brand being Enterprise Rent-A-Car. Not only are they known for their exemplary customer service and 5,800 convenient locations, they help customers, rent, buy or share vehicles. The company as a whole contributes to a lot of community programs to provide food to the needy, to help with conservation challenges, new worldwide tree growth and the Red Cross’s Annual Disaster Giving program. The 2019 Share the Code concert is their second annual event to celebrate the power of picking up others through acts of kindness and it’s clear it’s making a difference.

Funny side note, but before the concert began, I visited the ladies’ room. The line was fairly long, as everyone was getting ready to see the show, but everyone was SO NICE to each other. Anyone that’s been to a concert can attest to how crazy the lines can be, and how they can rile up anxious concertgoers. Not the case here, where people stepped aside for each other to get paper towels, to hold the door open and so forth. It was kind of unreal, so unexpected yet so, simply put, nice.

OneRepublic 2019

Thank you again, Enterprise and OneRepublic, for the opportunity to attend the event. I took along my husband, and we enjoyed the entire evening, including the drive through the beautiful desert to Pappy & Harriet’s. We are about 80 miles from Pioneertown, and I can’t remember the last time I’d been to the Yucca Valley area. The hiking areas and open rock formations made me wish we could have stayed the night and hike the next day.

Be nice out there. Kindness matters, and not just on National Kindness Day. Show kindness 365 days a year, and maybe you’ll find yourself the recipient of a code for the next “Share the Code. Hit the road” event with Enterprise!

Moet-Chandon champagne at the top of the Eiffel To Moet-Chandon champagne at the top of the Eiffel Tower? Sign me up. Our anniversary trip to Paris, France, was at the top of my bucket list and it was everything I hoped for. We did so many things, but our visit to the top of the Eiffel Tower was a highlight. 

A few things to know before you go:

There are three “stories” to the tower. All are accessible via stairs/elevator, but you have to purchase a ticket to see any. Your ticket is specific to which floors you plan to visit, so purchase carefully. Your ticket is required at each level to ascend higher.

Buy your ticket in advance. They do sell out, and lines can be long for standby. When we went, the standby line was around 70 minutes. 

It gets cold. The summit, which is the ‘top,’ is very windy. Secure your hat. In March, I wore a puffy coat and a scarf. I was still cold and wished I’d had gloves. 

At the summit, there is a champagne booth. You can purchase Moet-Chandon (in plastic flutes you can keep) to cheers the city. Also available are macarons and caviar. If they are out of macarons, you can also get them on the second story. They are good!

Unless you are in tip-top shape and/or you really feel brave, take the elevator up. Save your energy for the view or for taking the stairs down, which is what we did. The elevators coming down can be delayed, so if you’re in a rush, descending via the stairs may just be faster or at least break even.

There are two restaurants and a bar. Both restaurants require reservations. The Jules Verne is very high-end and books up months in advance. (We were not able to get a reservation despite trying quite a while ago.) 

Security is very, well, secure. You and your items will go through searches similar to the airport. They have a bin next to the entry full of things they took — SO many butter knives, and I still have no idea why someone would have one on their person?

It’s beautiful, so take your time. It’s incredible. Do it.

Disneyland Paris is celebrating its 30th anniversa Disneyland Paris is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and walking through the gates for our first visit was amazing. Also amazing: the Phantom Mansion. It has a lot of similarities to our Haunted Mansion here in California, but with a scarier spin. And for those who frequent the HM here in Anaheim, you know how often it stops mid-ride. This one didn’t stop once! It also creeped me out, and I LOVED it. The outside has shades of the Bates Motel and doesn’t have the cute factor of Disneyland California. Newer and more cleanly laid out, this whole park is pretty amazing. More info coming here and on the blog soon. Still gathering photos and putting away/distributing souvenirs.

A day in the French countryside is the stuff dream A day in the French countryside is the stuff dream vacations are made of. We drove two hours to Chablis, with new friends from Austin (private tour groups are the best!) and visited several wineries. Full confession: we tapped out early. ALL of us. So much wine. I should be embarrassed by that…maybe…but I’m not. We had an amazing French cuisine me lunch mid-day, where we enjoyed more wine. I’ll share lunch photos later. 

You save and plan so much for international travel, you need to try and relax and enjoy it. Not always easy, especially if your tour guide is sleepy or there are protests blocking the airport entry the day before you leave, but this pic kind of exemplifies our adventure. Go as far as you can. Do things you love. Be silly. And appreciate your partner’s goofy photo poses. 😆 Most of all, have fun. And drink wine.

That time, not long ago, that I spent my birthday That time, not long ago, that I spent my birthday feeding the giraffes. Bucket list ✅

Do the things you dream of. Wear the silly ears. Giggle like a kid. 

Life is way too short. There are only so many days to do all those things you’ve wanted to do. Make those memories. 

And feed the giraffes. This event is a private add-on when you visit the park. Reservations are required in advance. Worth every single penny….and I can’t wait to do it again.

Shuri was out on a walk with Dad, but for Lady Sif Shuri was out on a walk with Dad, but for Lady Sif, patience is a work in progress. This is how our goofy but lovable big girl waited for her turn.

And yes, kids grow up so we dote on the pups now. Why not? Lots of rescues available out there waiting for forever homes!

The recipe for that deliciousness is below! After The recipe for that deliciousness is below! After an overindulgent holiday season…and a whole lot of excuses…I’ve finally been working on adding more protein into my diet to drop a few pounds before we head to Paris next week. One of my favorite meals — or meal replacement, call it what you will — is a protein shake. They can be made in so many ways, all depending on what basics you have on hand. I try to keep mine simple, using whatever fruit I have in the drawer. Right now, thanks to Melissa’s Produce, I have Ojai Pixie tangerines to enjoy, so I decided to craft a super easy protein smoothie. I feel full, it gives me a protein boost and I only have to clean out the blender. Easy peasy.

Ojai Pixie Protein Smoothie

1 frozen banana
1/2 cup ice
1 scoop of protein powder
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
1 cup almond milk 
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 Ojai Pixies tangerines, peeled and sectioned

Blend in a powerful blender and serve with a fatty straw. If you don’t puree it, you’ll have some little chunks of citrus that will clog a regular straw, but for me, that makes it even better. 

Thick, cold, chunky, tangy citrus perfection. Grab some Ojai Pixie Tangerines soon! They’re only available through early June!
