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, […]

Video Edition: Fairmont Water Works
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 […]
Video Edition: Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens
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 […]
Video Edition: National Portrait Gallery
Just off the mall in Washington DC is the National Portrait Gallery, housed with the American Art Museum, in the newly renovated former US patent office. Like all of the Smithsonian museums around DC, this one holds more amazing art and stuff to look at than you can possibly absorb in just one visit. The […]
Video Edition: Comcast’s Largest Television Screen
The Comcast Center is Philadelphia’s newest and tallest skyscraper, and within it sits a very impressive 83′ x 25′ (that’s feet.. not inches) television screen. It’s claimed to be the world’s largest TV, and it’s free to visit in the lobby of the Comcast Center – open day and night. When we first got off […]
Video Edition: Hot Springs National Park
I love when nomadic serendipity takes us to experiences that we couldn’t even imagine a day prior. While driving northward towards St. Louis, we decided to route through Arkansas up scenic byway 7. This put us overnighting around Hot Springs, Arkansas. We looked around, and discovered there was a national park and campground, so that […]
Video Edition: Dell Diamond
We got an e-mail from Bill Bivin, one of the moderators from Dell over at Digital Nomads, asking us if we would be interested in submitting a guest post about our Camp Nomadia theme camp at Burning Man. As we also happened to be in Austin at the time, we made arrangements to meet up. […]
Video Edition: Rock Climbing in Austin, Texas
I grew up in South Austin, not too far from the Barton Creek Greenbelt. In fact, we could hike to it from our house. It was a wonderful place to grow up and be out in nature, but yet part of a progressive urban city. My brother still lives in Austin, so it’s a frequent […]
Video Edition: Carlsbad Caverns National Park
Cherie had visited Carlsbad Caverns in the mid-80s with her family on a road trip, and Chris had never been. We considered it a must stop on this journey across the country. It was even more impressive than Cherie had remembered. Direct link for the video [geo_mashup_map]
Video Edition: White Sands National Monument
On our way into Carlsbad Caverns, we opted to route through White Sands National Monument in southeast New Mexico, expecting it to be a quick stop. We thought at first.. how interesting can sand dunes be? Afterall, I lived on the coast of Florida for 13 years – I’ve seen my share of sand. We […]
