The Grand Canyon State of Arizona is an amazing place and its diversity never ceases to amaze me. Like a lot of folks from the Valley of the Sun, I try to escape the summer heat as often as I can. Thankfully, the pilgrimage is only a couple hours north...

At the helm of a 27' motorhome rented at El Monte RV, I headed into the heart of Sin City en route to a spot that I'd call my home base for the week. While there’s an abundance of lodging choices when staying in Vegas, there’s only one place for...

The Trumbull House…A New England hide-a-way

Mike Shubic August 15th, 2013 Comments Off

One of the fascinating features about staying at a B&B is that there is always a story…whether that of the structure, or, of the innkeeper(s). I recently discovered the oldest bed and breakfast in Hanover, New Hampshire, which is home to the Ivy League’s Dartmouth College. Just a few miles...

Mike Shubic July 20th, 2013 Comments Off

As the sun rises over the Atlantic Ocean, an amber glow casts a shadow on the high tide. The stillness of the water shimmers and reflects the tree-lined shore of Bass Harbor. In an instant, the landscape portrait is muddled by a highflying Tern who dropped from the sky like...

If you want to avoid the summer crowds in Acadia National Park, I reveal a secret spot in Acadia Park in this post. As a road tripper, I often meander the roads less traveled, looking for those hidden gems that few others discover. I'll drive down dirt roads, dead-ends, you...

Chattanooga, Tennessee, like many historic towns across the country, has gone through a re-birth cycle over the past couple decades.

The ensuing piece of the puzzle to solidify downtown enrichment...
