Planning a Family Weekend in Wine Country
A family weekend in Wine Country sounds like a bit of a misnomer, but I’m a firm believer that you can take kids anywhere – it just takes planning, compromise, and a bit of balance. Luckily there is so much to do in Sonoma County, California to make the whole family happy. Less than an […]
Camelback Resort opens Aquatopia Indoor Waterpark
This past weekend, Aquatopia Indoor Waterpark opened up at Camelback Lodge in Pennsylvania. I should say, parts of Aquatopia opened up. The hotel rooms are not yet ready for occupation, and only some of the water slides and park areas are (at this time) ready for use. Much of the exterior is also still under […]
Panasonic HX-A500 Point-of-View Wearable 4K Camcorder Review

Take It or Leave It? A Review of Ricardo Beverly Hills Luggage
When I first started traveling years ago, after I got married and before children, the sturdiness of a bag that I packed my clothes and essentials in never crossed my mind. Not even once.
