There is so much to do in Dutchess County it might be hard to make final decisions when planning an itinerary. Especially if you are looking to do a weekend or long weekend trip. Don’t worry! I spent some time there and have picked out some things that I think make a perfect weekend. Come…
When I decided to go to Red Rock Ranch in Wyoming I never imagined it would be such a foodie trip. I imagined I would eat well and enjoy myself but the culinary experience I was actually in for took me by surprise. What I ended up with was a real interesting culinary experience.
A few months ago I was put in contact with the PR woman who runs the Dude Ranches of America. She asked me if I would be interested in working with a dude ranch. The idea intrigued me. I am always looking for new experiences and new states to explore. She asked me to pick…
I have been to Philly a few times. I have explored the necessary monuments, eaten a cheese steak or two and even had a one night stand. Heading back there for a weekend I felt like I could explore more of the off the beaten path experiences and take more time.
People said I was crazy to spend a January weekend in Vermont. The possibility of the weather being hard to deal with was inevitable. If I didn’t go then when would I go?
My favorite states during the road trip were New Mexico, Colorado and Utah. The most beautiful landscapes would pass by as we drove. We planned on hiking in Bryce Canyon and staying there for two nights in a Tipi.

I already had the pleasure of spending time in Memphis about a decade ago and knew it was the kind of city I wanted to return to. However I was itching to get to Nashville. As a huge fan of country music I was excited to see all the places I had heard about.
Everyone raves about LA but San Diego is where it’s at. Although they told me the weather is perfect and while I was there it was colder than NY on some days, I still really enjoyed the laid back surfer attitude of San Diego. There are so many other reasons to go to SD besides…
Earlier this year I spent a month driving around the USA and besides realizing how glad I am that I live in New York I also realized how many great ice cream places there are!
Have you ever stayed in an HI Hostel? Until my time in Austin I had not. For some reason I was under the impression they were for really young travelers and had curfews. I could not have been more wrong about what they stand for and how wonderful they are.
Obviously the French Quarter is known for Bourbon Street. Besides Hurricane’s ( the drink that is) and heaps of multi colored beads there are lot of reason’s to head down to the famed area. These are my suggestions for exploring the French Quarter.
