It’s been two months since I started my 6 month solo road trip around the coastal route of the USA. I’ve been through 18 states and the Bahamas so far on my journey. I’ve traveled up the Pacific Coast Highway heading for Oregon. One of my last stops before crossing…
When traveling I like to stay at unique, off the beaten path properties. It makes the trip more memorable. On TripAdvisor I see Chanslor Guest Ranch and decide to book a trip. I love horses and have been riding for over 40 years. The property is located on Route 1 on…
After hiking the scenic Point Lobos State Park I stay over night at the The Colonial Terrace in Carmel. I rely heavily on TripAdvisor for reviews, pictures and write ups. The quaint inn is just steps away from Carmel-by-the Sea City Beach. My room which is on the second floor is cozy with a…

January 12, 2015 After driving 6 hours from El Mirage, Arizona I’m at my next destination: The Dana on Mission Bay . Every time that I’m in San Diego I stay here, I love it. Maybe it has to do with the location; overlooking the marina and Mission Bay. Or maybe it’s the wonderful…
