Let the adventure begin
Everything I needed was in those 3 bags waiting to be carried to the plane, climbing gear, camping gear, and some clothes and that was pretty much it. Everything I needed to survive this new adventure. Of course, Mom and Dad were a little worried and accompanied me to the airport, checked a thousand times if I was good to go and had one last coffee with me. And in just one moment it was time to go, I took my bag, said goodbye and walked through the gates.

Best German Casino Hotels
The concept of hotels is definitely not new. However, the idea of a hotel, combining the living premises and an entertainment area is relatively new. A great example of such a facility would be casino hotels, which are suited both for living and for gambling. Some may say they are made mostly for gamblers, but leisure or business travelers can enjoy them too.

Beat the Heat with a Hike
lWith the South Carolina sun high in the sky, it’s always important to know a good place to go to cool off. Whether you are a nature enthusiast, water lover, or just looking for something to do in the era of COVID, I recently found just the spot. About a forty-five minute drive north of Columbia, the Rocky Creek Trail is a perfect day trip.

Grabbing Some Sky
My first flight was, well forever ago. Before I was born. At least that’s the way I think of it. But my first real flight took place when I was eleven years old. I guess I should clarify: in my book, a real flight is a flight where you are the pilot. You control the aircraft. Crammed in some tiny excuse for a chair on an airliner with dozens, maybe hundreds of other grumpy passengers who smell of old aftershave and spilled coffee, doesn't count as a real flight. A real flight takes new meaning when you see the ground slipping by, and clouds flow over your wings changing colors with the sun.

Warm River
Warm River is a favorite picnic and tubing place for my family. It’s about an hour and a half from my front door, and people can camp there. Requisite metal picnic tables dot the wide, grassy banks as do willow bushes where raccoons and skunks like to stave off the heat of summer until sundown. (One year when we camped there overnight, a skunk circled our tent for what seemed like the entire night, and at some point he brought friends that tried to scratch their way in. Afraid to venture out, I peed in a red plastic salad bowl.) If you fish, you can catch brook, rainbow, and cutthroat trout in the slow, shallow water. But beware: the name “Warm River” is horribly misleading, as the water never thinks of approaching tepid, even on the lengthiest, most sun-soaked of dog days. Unless you’re hammered or have fortified waders on, you’re going to have to con some kid to wade out to the middle of the frigid water and flip over rocks to scare the fish out. You might want to offer a twenty.
