Travelogue: St. Louis to Burning Man
Time Period: July 29 – August 28 Miles Driven: 2764 The last segment of our Summer 2009 travels was wrapping up our cross country adventure and arriving for Burning Man. With a month ahead of us to get there, we looked for ways to optimize backroads and scenic routes. We aimed to visit a few more National [...]

Monday, September 7, 2009
One of the wonderful things about early arrival and staying late at Burning Man – is that you get to experience a more complete evolution of this temporary city. Each day at Burning Man has a different energy as the population rises and falls. Prior to gate open, you know that everyone around you at Black [...]

Wednesday, September 2, 2009
Three years ago, I was a Burning Man virgin. However, I disappointed Chris – as Black Rock City simply and immediately felt like home. I wasn’t awestruck and in need of acclimation or transformation. I took to it like a fish in water.. err.. dust. I was meant to be here. He explained to me [...]

Friday, August 28, 2009
As we go through the annual ritual of preparing our home to drive into the dusty playa, my mind is buzzing with thoughts of anticipation and trepidation. This will be my 3rd Burning Man, and Chris’s 9th. Each time I have been to Burning Man, it has been a true temporary location to park my home. [...]

Friday, August 14, 2009
One of the ways we’ve discovered to arrive to a city feeling more in tune with it, is to listen to podcasts from local community radio. It’s a great way to get a feel for a city, know some of the current issues and even get hints on local places to eat and shop. One podcast [...]

Wednesday, August 12, 2009
The Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Center is located near Dulles Airport, just outside Washington D.C. Just like its more famous cousin located downtown along the Washington D.C. Mall, the Udvar-Hazy center houses an incredible collection of aviation artifacts, including an SR-71 Blackbird, the Space Shuttle Enterprise (the one used for in-atmosphere flight testing), [...]

Monday, August 10, 2009
We’re often asked what our favorite things are in our travels. The City Museum in downtown St. Louis, Missouri is without a doubt, on tops of that list. And who would have thought that in the center of the midwest stands one of the most amazing creations around? The City Museum is no ordinary museum, however. [...]

Monday, August 10, 2009
A meshing of civil engineering and ecosystem art, the Fairmont Water Works interactive center gives a peak back in time to when water distribution throughout Philadelphia allowed the city to survive and thrive. Located at the base of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, spending some time at the interactive center is well worth your time – [...]

Saturday, August 8, 2009
As you wander throughout downtown Philadelphia, particularly around South Street, you’ll notice a lot of buildings decorated with broken mosiac murales. These are the artwork of Isaiah Zagar, and you can tour his huge installation at Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens at 1020 South Street. We first stumbled upon this place by sheer serendipity, and were instantly enchanted [...]

Friday, July 31, 2009
Time Period: June 30 – July 29 Miles Driven: 1904 We had no plans for how to spend the summer. We had toyed with the idea of finding a nice campground in the Smokey Mountains and parking for several weeks to catch up on some work projects. We had toyed with ducking into Canada and getting [...]
