Rock climbing in Joshua Tree is a bucket list experience. Located just 2.5 hours east of Los Angeles, Joshua Tree…
There is nothing like the drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles, along the California coast. When Kevin and I…
There are no shortage of Napa Valley wine tours for couples. But the Napa Valley Wine Train is certainly the…
What are the best things to do in San Diego for kids? Now that Kevin and I are parents with…
Kevin and I have been loving our time exploring Old Town Santa Fe. But we were ready to hit the high road from Santa Fe to Taos for a big road trip adventure. This is a full-day excursion with 7 total stops mapped out every 45 minutes or so. Meaning…Kevin,…
If there is one thing that Kevin and I love more than a food walking tour, it’s a biking tour. We think it’s one of the best ways to see a city and get some low-impact exercise all at once. And besides, after several days in Santa Fe, we could…
Kevin and I just got back from spending 5 days in New Mexico for the July 4th holiday. It was tough narrowing down what to do, especially since I kept coming up with one day trip after another. But one spot quickly topped my list — a day trip to…
Kevin and I were recently in San Francisco to celebrate our friend Brandon’s landmark 40th birthday. It was a pretty wild weekend between his birthday festivities and the fact that it was gay pride weekend — pretty much a national holiday in these parts! But despite all this, Kevin and…
During our two years living in San Francisco, Kevin and I visited Sonoma wine country on just three occasions. Kevin worked in Santa Rosa, so he never wanted to go over the weekend. But that wasn’t the only reason. We shared one car — a stick shift none-the-less. I had…

So it’s going to sounds weird, but our latest 2 day road trip adventure was pretty much inspired (okay, completely!) by my computer’s desktop wallpaper. You’ve all seen the shot, I’m sure. It’s that unmistakable river bend known as horseshoe canyon. But to me, it resembles an island on some…
Route 66 is legendary — conjuring up images of the golden age of the automobile and roadside America. Decades after the interstate highway system nearly wiped it off the map, the route is still hanging on. Today, one of the best places to see Route 66 in all its glory is…
Sadly we’ve come to the end of our New Zealand adventure. For the past 2 weeks, I showed Kevin around the country that I called home more than 16 years ago. And yes, I’m feeling very old just thinking about it! The best way to see New Zealand is by…
It’s a road trip adventure! Two weeks in New Zealand is a good chunk of time. Now don’t get me wrong — Kevin and I could have easily spent a month driving around. But sadly, as our fellow Americans know all too well, we only had 2 weeks of vacation….
