Joshua Tree, like many of our great National Parks, is a massive open space that offers unlimited opportunities for exploration. This can be quite overwhelming to local daytrippers like myself.

Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner in the Mojave Desert
A visit to Joshua Tree is likely to be an active adventure. Hiking the trails, driving the winding roads of the State Park, and taking in the spectacular vistas, is sure to leave you a bit parched, with your tummy growling with self-righteous “feed me now!” hunger.

A Family Visit to Boracay Island Part 2: The Lind Hotel
The Lind Hotel on Boracay’s White Beach is one of those properties that looks great in photos, and even better in person.

Classic Lava Lamps for Cool Kids
I remember how much I wanted a Lava® Lamp as a kid. I thought they were the coolest thing ever, and could not wait to decorate my room with one. My older brothers had one in their groovy 70s themed room so of course I wanted one too. I loved the dreamy cast the light created…
A Family Visit to Boracay Island in The Philippines Part One: Getting to Boracay
Mountains or Beach? I heard this question a lot while in the #philippines. Apparently you can only be one or the other. I know my place. How about you?
