Weekend in Santa Claus, Indiana

by 1 Comment

This past weekend we drove up to Santa Claus, IN for a wedding.  We have some friends that live near there and also got to see a few friends from California that were visiting for the wedding.  It was such a great weekend.  We were able to spend a good amount of time with our friends and catch up a little bit.

We stayed at Santa’s Lodge which is right by Holiday World.  It was a cute little hotel.  It wasn’t as dressed up in Santa stuff as I thought it could have been but it worked well for us.  They had an indoor pool we got to use on Saturday morning with a hot tub.  The reception was also at the hotel so that made it really easy for us.  They also gave us a military discount of $10 off a night.

What places have you been for a quick weekend away?

Empire Covers Car Cover Review

by 4 Comments

Product Review DI was contacted by Melissa at Empire Covers to do a review of one of their products.  Empire Covers has a nice selection of covers for all types of needs.  They have Car Covers as well as other types of Vehicle Covers, Boat Covers, Bike Covers, Sports Covers and RV Covers.  They also carry a selection of car accessories.

I decided to go with a car cover.  As you know we just moved into our new house.  We have a garage that we would love to use for a car but not sure that can happen before winter gets here.   Since my husband is the one that has to get out of the house early, we thought a cover for his car would be best.  When you get to the site you can search for car covers based on your car’s make, model and year.  This is to ensure you get the exact cover for your car.

Empire Car CoversI ended up with the Titan Quatro 4L Car Cover which is supposed to be great for all types of weather.  Snow, rain, sun and dust. The cover comes all folded up and it is pretty easy to put on your car.  There is even a great video to show you how to do it on their site.  I would say it took me about two minutes to put it on, 30 seconds to take it off.

The material feels pretty strong to me and I found the color to be nice.  I kept it on overnight and although we didn’t have any rain or snow, it did keep the dew off of the car.

I think this will be great for the icy and snowy mornings we might get this winter.

Right now they are having a fall sale.  Enter the code: SPT10 for 10% off.

You can find Empire Covers at Twitter as well.
