The CK Daily – A Stay at the Swamp
Happy Friday, folks! Fall break is coming up for our kids in a few weeks, and we’re all ready for a short break! We’re leaving town for a few days while they’re off. Over the last couple of years, we’ve been exploring more unique places to stay on Airbnb. We’re currently on a tiny home kick and have plans to stay in our second tiny home soon. My kids think that tiny homes are incredible places to stay!
So I saw this new article on Airbnb today that you can now stay in Shrek’s swamp. 😲 Would you stay here?
What are some of the most exciting or interesting places you’ve stayed? We’re looking to explore some new places, so I’d love to hear about your experiences.
Have a great weekend!

These particular screws have an E-Z start shank. This type of shank is void of threads for the first few “rounds” at the bottom. This allows easy insertion of the screw without having to get it “started” first.
Learning Center Article – What Is BIMMF?
Every business has tech hardware that they depend on for daily operations. That could be something as simple as a printer or something as complicated as a dedicated cellular network that spans a 15-mile service area.
Since you rely on this hardware, you need the means to take care of it when things go wrong. You can do some of that with in-house IT, but sometimes, you need outside help. When that time comes, you can consider third party maintenance.
