Ramada Conference Center Qualcomm Stadium
We stayed at the Ramada Inn in San Diego for a weekend trip recently. As San Diego is not such a large city, it was quiet convenient from many of the attractions.

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania is like my home-away-from-home. I’ve visited so often that I’m learning every street, every nook and cranny, and, of course, every historic home. Gettysburg, the small town made famous by the epic battle of July 1863, has many old homes that were built before the battle.

Bethlehem, PA
Go to any town or city during the Christmas holiday season, and I would dare to say that no place is lit up like Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The entire place is lit from top to bottom, holiday tours are given in limos of various museums and Christmas Displays, and …

Luray Caverns
I don’t get much of an opportunity to travel and, when I do, I wouldn’t exactly say that I’m much for the “outdoors-y” type of stuff, unless it’s something of spiritual significance (like a hike to a Buddhist temple, for instance), but when my mother-in-law wanted us to stop …
