After spending a week hiking in Leadville, you can bet I worked up a serious appetite. Everything is harder at 10,000 feet in atltitude which basically just means I gave my permission to eat to my heart’s content while I was in town. And with so many great Leadville restaurants to choose from — at […]

I’ve wanted to go to Meow Wolf in Santa Fe ever since I first heard of it. To be honest, I didn’t even really understand what it was — I just need the photos were intriguing and the mystery made it even more enticing. But realistically, any attraction that’s labeled as “immersive” piques my interest.

One of the reasons New Mexico is so cool is because it has tremendous geological formations that no one outside the state knows about. And unlike national parks, these wilderness areas are sparsely visited so you won’t be jockeying for the perfect photo. You can enjoy it all in peace. On my most recent trip
I’m thrilled to see more people get vaccinated every day, but I’m still hesitant when it comes to booking travel. I think “normalcy” is still a long time off. Even once I’m vaccinated (I’m not yet), do I want to eat dinner in a crowded restaurant? Should I pack myself onto the metro to get
The American side of Niagara Falls got shafted: we don’t have the same full-frontal views of the waterfalls that Canada boasts.

The photographs were certainly beautiful…but would they live

I made a pact this year to embrace the cold. I’ve never outright disliked winter, but it’s far too easy to stay cozy inside unless you put in a special effort. Turns out, some places are even more beautiful in the snow. Franconia Notch State Park, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, is one

Choosing where to stay in Mexico City is a monumental task. It’s no small city, covering more than 500 square miles and home to nearly nine million residents! With so many neighborhoods to choose from — and hundreds of hotels in each — choosing the best fit for you is overwhelming unless you know what

When it comes to things to do in Cancun, some are downright cheesy. Things like Aztec game reenactments are fun with the right mindset, so I was ready to embrace the tacky at Xcaret’s dinner show (the Xcaret Mexico Espectacular) near Playa del Carmen. Xcaret Park Xcaret is the original “eco-archaeological park” in the Riviera

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but there’s not enough snow in Buffalo. We’ve gotten a few dustings, and about six inches for Christmas, but for the most part, winter hasn’t shown its face. Normally, I wouldn’t even care, but this year I need something to take my mind off gloomy gray skies, day after
