Sunset Sunday – San Blas, Nayarit, Mexico

After two full days in San Blas, I booked the third night. The town still intrigued. And to celebrate I returned to the beach with my pen, journal and some pesos for a cerveza to watch the sunset.  I arrived and selected one of the popular talapas and ordered a Pacifico. My mission to watch the […]

Where to Stay in South Beach? – Hotel Victor

South Beach. The very words bring a smile to many of us. Its sultry scene provides the chance to “see and be seen.” Whether you explore the beach, people watch on ocean drive, or head out to the clubs late night, it’s all about looking beautiful. Visitors “do” South Beach many ways; some want ocean […]

Sunset Sunday – Jaco, Costa Rica

Looking back, the sunset seems to have always been a special part of my travels. From my childhood to my first solo trips, I can recall many sunsets. But it was after Costa Rica, the first destination on my travel sabbatical, when my simple love for the sunset grew to a passion. With most of […]

No, not just the human population, but all life and those places tend to exist in nature. One such place was the Creekview Country Cottage Bed & Breakfast in Muncy, Pennsylvania. Just off interstate 180, a […]

Sunset Sunday – Columbus Circle, NYC

Sometimes I search out the sunset. I plan my day around the moment. I find it’s well worth it every time. Other times, well the sunset finds me. It finds us all. We can be at an event or perhaps just living life and “wa-la” the sunset causes us to pause. We watch it. We enjoy […]

A Look Back for the Space Shuttle’s Last Launch

I watched the next to last shuttle launch on the internet. Amazing.  It reminded me how I always wanted to see a launch live. To witness humanity blast to the heavens with my own eyes. And as a child, I didn’t just want to watch. No sir. I wanted to captain a crew. I wanted […]
