That is exactly […]

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

by on July 25, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

The Green Flash. Sunset aficionados know about it. Some don’t believe it exists, some quest for it like a crusade for the holy grail, and others, the fortunate few, can claim witness to its majesty. I’ll admit I remained semi-skeptical until that day.  The day when walking along beach and watching the sun dip into […]

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

Inside Jack Johnson tunes took over for the Eagles soundtrack and I noticed the lunchtime crowd cleared, a positive indication that the […]

by on July 16, 2010 in Destination, Reflection

A new adventure awaits on every trip. But that doesn’t mean you never revisit the places you visited on prior travels. Of course, your time might not be the same. New memories await. And even if the place hasn’t changed – I learned you have. A recent trip to Amsterdam, my third, included both a […]

Why I love Mexico: Rutas de Mexico

by on July 5, 2010 in Destination, Events, Films, Market, Mexico Travel

For those that know me, know I love Mexico.  The romance, the music, the adventure, the history, the culture, the cuisine, the cervezas… Ah, the list can continue and continue.  Essentially it can go on for an entire blog post; there are many more than seven reasons. But I know Mexico, do you? I lived […]

Sunset Sunday – Benton, PA (Happy 4th of July)

Sunset Sunday – Benton, PA (Happy 4th of July)

by on July 4, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

Sometimes the search for ‘Americana’ needs to take people out of the city.
