Food allergies can be fairly easy to manage at home, but when you are traveling it can create challenges.
If you suffer from peanut allergies, and are traveling by air, let the airline know at the time you book your reservations. By doing so, you give the airline sufficient notice of your medical condition, and give it time […]
Thanksgiving is a good time to reflect on the many thing in life that we are thankful for. Here’s a peek at some of the things on my list:
Good health.
Family, friends, and friends who are like family.

One of the best parts of travel is the chance to connect with friends and meet new people. That’s just what I had the opportunity to do over this past weekend.

As much as I love to travel, it’s always good to […]
I love patronizing family businesses. There’s something appealing to me in knowing that generations have struggled and prospered to stake out a little part of the American Dream.
Even though ABC Carpets & Home is not your typical small family business, it still resonates with a rich, family tradition.
It began in 1897, with Sam Weinrib, an […]
I’ve been in Cancun (Mexico) a lot this month, generally enjoying some pretty nice weather, and lots of good quality beach time.
But what a difference a week can make!
I took the top photo about ten 10 days ago. My hotel room looked out onto the beach, and there was a tremendous storm.

Another day, another wonder, and this one will also stir the debate about whether wonders should be man made or natural. Regardless of your position on that issue, there is no doubt as to the beauty of the underwater world of the Hawaiian Islands Marine National Monument.
