NYC Street Art : Walk Around the Lower East Side

NYC Street Art

We recently had the pleasure of a day off in old stomping grounds, New York City.  As we ambled aimlessly through the Lower East Side and Alphabet City, enjoying some snacks and adult beverages, we couldn’t help but snap some photos of some great NYC street art. Everything from stickers and wheatpaste pieces to full-building painted murals and […]

Cape Cod Winter: An Out of “Season” Photo Gallery

Colorado Concord grapes on the vine

Confession: I Want to Be a Farmer…Colorado Concord Grapes Were a Perfect Reminder There’s nothing like eating straight from the garden.

We are […]

Biosphere 2, but no Pauley Shore here!

Biosphere 2

Ever since seeing the movie Bio-Dome in the 90s, I’ve been intrigued by giant glass enclosures in the middle of the desert.  Anyone who knows the movie can’t deny having the same feelings!  Little did I know that our job would bring me the opportunity to check out the real deal first hand.  About an hour […]

Wild Caving in Inner Space Cavern

Wild Caving Wild caves are often largely unexplored. Unlike show caves, like the famous Carlsbad Caverns or the lesser-known Dixie Caverns, wild caves haven’t been developed to allow easy access by the public. There are no handrails, no illumination, no stairs and ramps. Wild caving should only be undertaken by people with special caving equipment, […]

Petrified Forest NP: Nature’s Canvas

 [metaslider id=11316] Colors of The Painted Desert A new opportunity to learn more about what life was like for early residents of the Arizona desert is one more reason we’d love to return.

Cranberries, History and Puppies in Carver, MA

Sometimes the most mundane errands can turn into a lovely adventure. My Dad lost his faithful companion, Yankee this past spring, and he’s really been missing the companionship and fun of a dog. We accompanied his wife and him to check out some Golden Retriever puppies in Carver, MA, a town an hour or so away […]
