Back in the summer, Kat's dad had a brilliant idea to celebrate Thanksgiving closer to her sister's place in DC. So, he rented a cabin in Davis, West Virginia, and off we went!

And it turned out to be the best Thanksgiving we've ever had. It snowed, we went winter hiking, admired the snowfall from the comfort of the hot tub, played games, and even busted our butts and had a great time sledding with the nephews.

So in this podcast episode, we're talking about how to spend time in Davis, West Virginia in the winter! Whether you want a more budget-friendly ski destination or just love spending time in the mountains in winter, we have a feeling you'll quickly fall in love with Davis too.

I have a whole destination guide on the Substack about Davis, West Virginia that you can check out here: https://worldwidehoneymoon.substack.com/p/winter-in-davis-west-virginia
