Viva Las Vegas + Adios Los Angeles thumbnail

Where we’re at: I’m recapping my travels in 2019, including this trip to Las Vegas and Los Angeles in August.  I realize for some this is a difficult time to read about travel. However, my blog audience has spoken and they have overwhelmingly requested a break from COV-tent (content about, well, you know…), and a place where they…

The Great Escape: Month 75 Roundup thumbnail
