You know? Sleeping in an airport ain’t so bad

March 23, 2016 by Will SandovelLeave a Comment

Traveling for me is the memorable experience of exploring countries that few have had the privilege of visiting.

If you fly, you are certainly familiar with this - … [Read more...]

Knoxville Rocks the History Trail

March 19, 2016 by Marianne RuaneLeave a Comment

Tennessee is really a fascinating place, particularly for history buffs. There are sites exemplifying pioneer history, the founding of the United States, the Civil War, the Great Depression, WWII, and the Civil Rights Movement – all easily accessible from Knoxville (itself named after Henry Knox, Revolutionary War hero and Secretary of War under President Washington).

March 18, 2016 by DaveLeave a Comment
