A Trip to England (Part II)
It is hard for me to accept how naïve I was about life in London, even at the age of fourteen. I unpacked my bags and filled up her front room with my collection of music tapes. This was my first mistake and a sign that I did not know the culture I was in. I was listening to mostly progressive or light rock (Genesis and Supertramp were personal favourites). My mistake was sharing this so publicly. I had a Walkman, but I sometimes insisted on playing these records on her stereo. What I mean by saying this is that I did not understand the culture I was in and that I was out of step with what I thought I knew from those exports I mentioned (most of my recordings were made by British groups and record companies).

St. Augustine Sojourn
Casa de Suenos The first impression of this cozy bed and breakfast is one of a sheltered haven from the hustle and bustle of larger towns, lodgings, and the interstate left far behind. From wherever you may have come, the pastel yellow stucco welcomes you in the warmth that is echoed within by its soft colonial decor.

Yesterday (9/24/22) my family and I took an adventure in downtown Knoxville, Tennessee. We were romping around market square in the art district. We had bought tickets to a Clued Up Games event, featuring Alice in Wonderland.

Helen, Georgia
As a child, we often camped in the Northeastern part of Georgia. Nestled there in the mountains was a small town with architecture inspired by Bavaria, Germany. I was intrigued by the lake for swimming and boating. One of my favorite waterfalls, Anna Ruby Falls, is a short drive and hike up the road from Helen.

A Plant-Based Road Trip through England and Scotland
“Veganism is not a sacrifice, it’s a joy.” Gary L. Francione The United Kingdom is a perfect travel destination for a vegan. Never on the two-week road trip from London to Edinburgh was there a shortage of plant-based food. I quite literally ate my way through London, Bath, the Cotswolds, Stratford-Upon-Avon, the Lake District, Loch Lomond, Inverness, and Edinburgh.

Through the Eyes of a Virginia Coaster Enthusiast: Dollywood Review
Dollywood is an amusement park located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, in the Smokey Mountain regions of the United States. This park has been on my bucket list since 2013, one of the earliest of my coaster enthusiast years, and almost a decade later, I finally was able to make a trip to this park. I can already say after first impressions, this is perhaps the second most beautiful theme/amusement park I've had the privilege to visit, only behind Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia.

The Final Drop
A single drop made its way over the cage pulled by the strong force of the summer sun. Its greatest desire is to be set free from its crunchy and delicious cage. That single drop is naïve to think there is anything waiting for it on the other side of the waffled exterior. But, nonetheless, the bewitching sun is too powerful in its ways. It calls for the single drop of frozen delectable to push just a little further, melt just a little faster. The drop knows nothing of its future if it falls. A future in which it will become just a meaningless speck on the sidewalk soon to be trampled by running feet. No one will pay any mind to the speck on the sidewalk; whose life expectancy has been shortened to practically nothing. All in good time, the sun will call its name, and the drop will have no choice but to respond, melting away until it has become one with the energy around it. The drop, responding to the call as fast as possible, does not see destiny lurking . In a moment's notice, the drop is scooped up; not by the sun, but by a wet, pink tongue desperately trying to prevent wasting a single drop of sweet cream. And just like that, the drop has yet to drip. It becomes as Alice tumbling down a dark tunnel towards Wonderland without knowledge of where lies the final destination. But fear not little sun. You may have lost one drop; however, the brothers are just as eager to respond to your halloo.

A Trip to Ireland’s Most Haunted Castle
Leap Castle is said to be the most haunted castle in Ireland. It has a long history of conflict and a number of reports from people who claim they had paranormal encounters while visiting there. When I visited several years ago, I went as part of a paranormal research group. I made a point of not looking up the particulars of the castle’s history because I wanted to see if what I saw and heard matched up with what has been previously reported by others without any predispositions.
