Travel from sea to shining sea; by car or by plane, there's plenty to see in the good ole US of A.
Look Up and Be Impressed
Christ of the Ozarks is an impressive sculpture of Jesus near Eureka Springs, Arkansas, on the peak of Magnetic Mountain. The statue was designed by sculptor Emmet Sullivan in 1966. The statue faces west, and sunsets often turn the spread-armed Savior a rosy pink.

My Thoughts on the UPS Plane Crash at Louisville Airport – A Tragic Wake-Up Call for Kentucky and Beyond
My Thoughts on the UPS Plane Crash at Louisville Airport – A Tragic Wake-Up Call for Kentucky and Beyond** When I first heard that a **UPS plane crashed at Louisville Airport**, I felt a deep sense of shock and sadness. As someone who follows aviation news closely, I’ve read about air disasters before, but this one hit differently. Louisville is home to UPS’s Worldport facility — a global hub that represents not only commerce but also the hardworking people behind those daily deliveries. Hearing about the **UPS crash Kentucky** tragedy made me think about the human side of such incidents: the pilots, the families, the emergency responders, and even the local residents whose lives were suddenly thrown into chaos.

Vacations Seem Impossible
It's been a year and I haven't had my own car. I know lots of people don't have a car and that should be no big deal, but I'm just not the same without my own car. I accepted that I couldn't afford it anymore. I'm old, on a fixed income, and I just don't have the spending money like I did way back when. Plus, I've never known anything about fixing cars, and they all break down at some point. It was driving me insane - literally. I would get so depressed. Though I am happier that I'm not spending a fortune on a car, I haven't gone anywhere in a year. Nowhere. The most exciting trip I've been on in a year is to the local Walmart. That's pretty pathetic to me, especially when I know that I suffer from Wanderlust. Oh yeah, I got bit by the Wanderlust bug big time back in 2018. I've always loved traveling, but when I got into Road Tripping, I fell in love with travel even more.

The Rise and Fall of Six Flags America . Top Story - November 2025.
The first time I went to Six Flags was when I was 13, me and my siblings we were in Summer Camp in 2009. We go to pools every Friday and field trips like for instance, Washington Mystics WNBA game which was our first field trip. It was the last field trip before the end of summer camp. We went to the Six Flags in Bowie and we had the most upmost fun going fun rides including the roller coasters (mind you it’s my first time riding roller coasters at the time) after we rode on the rides including the water parks. My favorite ride at Six Flags was the Drop Zone and the Hurricane Harbor where the sharp waves come up and down and it became my all time favorite.

Americans Are Traveling Like Never Before in 2025 — Here’s Why
Something’s happening out there. Airports are packed, highways are jammed, and “sold out” signs hang at hotels from Miami to Maui. Americans are traveling like never before, and not just for the usual reasons. It feels bigger, more emotional. There’s a hunger to move, to escape, to make up for lost time.

Reflections of Tara
Many Southern plantation houses have been featured in movies or on TV. Plantations began in the early 17th century when the British offered large tracts of land. Most settlers inhabited the South, and their vast properties eventually became plantations.
