Where in the World Am I Now?

November 1, 2024 by Dave2 Comments

October 26, 2024 by Tom BentleyLeave a Comment

Paso Robles, you know it: that quaint, semi-rustic town you stop at for a bite and a glass of wine on your drives between LA and San Francisco. Well, in between drives, Paso Robles has grown up, and in the best of ways. These days, Paso is more of a first (though less expensive) cousin of Napa’s St. Helena—you’ll definitely want a second glass of wine. And you’ll want to stay a spell. The town retains its California Western feel, but now … [Read more...]

Lazy Days in One of the World’s Least Visited Countries

October 1, 2024 by Dave4 Comments

Time moves no slower here than in Los Angeles or any other major city on the planet. It’s just what you decide to do with your time that determines how fast you perceive time. This is Majuro Atoll in the little visited and very remote Marshall Islands. Here are a few observations and notes from our time in the country: - The Marshall Islands became a country in 1986. - U.S. dollars are the accepted currency - It takes over an hour … [Read more...]

July 20, 2024 by DaveLeave a Comment

Whenever I am in south Florida, I always take a day or two to drive down to the keys. I usually fly into the Fort Lauderdale airport as its smaller and easier to navigate than Miami. My favorite time to visit is in December and or January when much of the rest of the U.S. is experiencing cold weather.
