Bridge over the Congaree River in Columbia, South Carolina where I visited a couple months ago.

Sleeping Bear Dunes is one of Michigan's most popular gems. This place is massive! The main dune climb, which is behind me, is a 284-foot-high wall of glistening white sand that tourists climb for fun. For the adventurous, you can trek onward to Lake Michigan, which is 3.5 miles of sand round trip.

This is a miniature map of the city of Luneburg, Germany located in the town. A pretty cool overview if you ask me! I was visiting here in 2019.

This was a pretty foggy day that I visited Chicago, IL back in 2013. This picture is looking north from the Grant Park area towards the Art Institute.

I am back home safely from my 11 day road trip through Ontario, NY, VT, NH, ME, MA, RI, CT, NJ, PA, OH, IN & finally back to MI! Phew! I have countless photos to share in the future but for now I'll leave you with my trip underground at the Howe Caverns in upstate New York. It was so much fun!

My New England road trip is coming to an end. I’ll be home tomorrow. Today I started off in New Haven, Connecticut. Pictured here is the New Haven Green, a public space originally designed in 1638 and is one of the oldest continuously used public spaces in the United States!

I’ve been on the road through New England for a week now. Making my was back home. Today’s adventures brought me through Newport, Rhode Island. A beautiful seaside town full of far too many people at the start of this holiday weekend!

One if by land, two if by sea! Hello from Boston where I got to see some cool history today. This is the famous Paul Revere statue, depicting his midnight ride. The Old North Church is behind him where the two lanterns were hung on April 18, 1775.

My New England road trip has reached the point where I get closer to home instead of further away as I’m now heading back west. Made a stop in Ogunquit, Maine this morning and found this charming pedestrian only drawbridge! If you’ve missed a previous post, check out my timeline.

I’ve made it to Acadia National Park in Maine as I continue my east cost road trip this week. As you can see from this picture, the entire area is beautiful! Wish you all were here with me.

Another day, another new state on my New England road trip! Today I was in Littleton, New Hampshire. It was quite a charming town. This is me inside Chutters, which features the worlds longest candy counter! One of everything for me! Please give me a like or repost if you would be so kind.

I’m taking a road trip through New England this week and today I hit a new state: Vermont. I don’t think I’m ever going to leave! I stumbled on Ben & Jerry’s factory and let me just say, YUM! If you’re a new follower: I post one new adventure every evening. Your likes & shares are much appreciated!

My New England road trip continues. Today I ended up in Lake Placid, New York. Famous for Winter Olympic heroics, especially the Miracle on Ice game when USA beat the USSR in ice hockey in 1980. This is the actual scoreboard from that magical game

Hello from New York! I visited the finger lakes region today and got to do some hiking in the Watkins Glen State Park. It was beautiful with so many waterfalls. And stairs. Far too many stairs!

It's finally here! I leave this afternoon on my New England road trip that will take me through Memorial Day weekend. I'll be visiting 8 states - 4 for the first time! Follow along as I post 1 new adventure every day. This is from my last time in Maine back in 2017. This is the Portland Head Light.

The Spirit of Detroit is an iconic statue in downtown Detroit. Installed in 1958, it is one of the largest bronze statues in the United States, and was the largest bronze statue cast since the Renaissance at the time of its dedication. I visited in 2023.

Is there anyone on here that watches The Bear? They dropped a surprise episode a week ago, titled "Gary" after the city of the same name in Indiana. If you happened to watch that episode, you might have noticed the characters eating lunch at a Coney Dog place. Well, I visited myself last weekend!

I wanted to circle back to this - a couple days ago, while sharing the 10 most recognizable landmarks I have visited, several people commented on my photo of The Alamo in San Antonio, TX to mention that Pee Wee Herman's bike is there! The 1985 film was partially filmed here. So, here's the bike!

I've been sharing the 10 most iconic places I have visited and this is my final day. Stonehenge in England was a bucket list item for me and I was so happy to get to visit in 2023. If you missed any of the other 9, please scroll back through my timeline!

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. For day 10 I am in front of one of the most famous landmarks in the world: The Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. This is from my visit in 2019.

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. Today is day 8 and I hope you all know what this one is: The Statue of Liberty in New York! I was here in 2002. Hoping to go back this summer!

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. For my 7th entry, this is The Alamo in San Antonio, TX. The building has a very familiar shape, but I wonder how many people know the history?

For the first 10 days of May I'm celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These places should be recognizable to all. Present occupant notwithstanding, The White House in Washington, D.C. is a symbol of democracy & is one of the most recognizable homes in the world! I visited in 2002.

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. For my fifth entry, I present to you the Berlin Wall in Berlin, Germany. A small amount still remains as a reminder. I was here in 2019.

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. For stop number 4 I am sharing my visit to the Golden Gate Bridge, recognized as the most famous bridges in the world. I was here in 2015.

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. The third location is...Niagara Falls! I've been here several times. This picture is from 2023.

For the first 10 days of May I am celebrating the most legendary places I have visited. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. The second stop is Big Ben in London. This is from my 2023 visit.

I've been to some pretty amazing places! For the next 10 days I am going to celebrate the most legendary of those locations. These are places that should be instantly recognizable to all. Stop #1 is the Grand Canyon in Arizona. This picture is from my 2011 visit.

This is me in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2024. For those that are new here: I post one of my adventures a day, every day. I try to post in the vicinity of 8pm ET but due to my busy lifestyle, that doesn't always work. Please LIKE and REPOST my adventures as much as possible! It keeps me going!

What can I say, I like a good cannon! This one is in the fort, Castillo San Felipe del Morro, in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The fort itself dates from the 16th century. I don't know how old the cannon is. I was here in 2005 so it's at least 21 years old by now and probably more.

That time I got photo bombed in Key West, Florida by some chickens!

Ever had a Sonoran hot dog? If not, this is what they look like, although probably not as big. A famous dish in the Tucson, Arizona area, the main takeaway is that these dogs are bacon wrapped, which I highly recommend! (For toppings, I am not included!)

My weekend in Wisconsin concluded yesterday with a drive through Madison. Behind me is the state capitol. It was a beautiful day and Madison was so crowded it felt like the entire population of Wisconsin was out and about!

Here's another picture from my visit to Death Valley National Park in California last summer. Yes, it was as hot as it looks! Fun fact: scenes from the original Star Wars movie were filmed very close to here in the 1970's! Permits are no longer granted to film in the national park.

Hello from Milwaukee, Wisconsin! I’m here visiting this weekend and earlier today I had the pleasure of taking a tour of the former Pabst brewery. The beer making has moved elsewhere but the 1800’s era buildings have been preserved and repurposed. The tour was a lot of fun!

This is last summer at the Toledo Zoo in Toledo, Ohio. That's a hippopotamus underwater directly behind me! I'm particularly proud of how this photo turned out!

Galveston, Texas from my visit in 2022. Looking out over the Gulf of Mexico. Is it controversial to call it that?

I went to Alaska in 2007 for 10 days and I'm told there's only three photos to prove it. That's just crazy! Well, here's one of those pictures, taken in Juneau. Luckily, I hear there are plans to go back next year with promises of more photos than I'll know what to do with!

Hey all, I'm trying to post my daily adventure but it's not uploading my photo! ☹️

It's funny how everyone associates Niagara Falls with Canada but the American side is equally lovely for different reasons. It's a little ironic that the Canadians were the ones to build a tourist trap and the American side has a state park! I was here in 2023.

Soaking up the sun in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia in 2010. Surviving colonial structures have been restored to their 18th-century appearance. Many of the once missing colonial structures were reconstructed on their original sites beginning in the 1930s and is now a living-history museum.

Found a new friend in Cozumel, Mexico during my 2025 visit!

This time next month your favorite traveling stuffed cow will be off on my first ever road trip through New England! I will be sharing daily adventures that you won't want to miss!

Just some cool thing I found while wandering around Scottsdale, Arizona in 2024.

Watching the old men (and women) play dominos in Little Havana, Miami, Florida in 2023. This is Maximo Gόmez Park. It is also nicknamed "Domino Park" and is a gathering place for Cuban immigrants. Anyone over 50 with a Maximo Gόmez Domino Club card has free, lifetime membership to play here.

Yesterday I posted a pic of Colonel Armstrong, a famous California Redwood tree. But in rare circumstances, these giant sequoias can be found elsewhere...such as this one in northern Michigan! There are about six of them up there that were planted in the 1940's and I visited in 2023.

The famous tree Colonel Armstrong is in the Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve in northern California. This tree is very old and very tall! I visited in 2015, that makes the tree 1411 years old by now!

I never get tired of the view here at the Grand Canyon. I've visited several times. This is from my 2011 trip.

Enjoying the beach on the island of Grand Turk in the Caribbean back in 2015. This is a major cruise ship port with a fantastic beach!

The fountains outside Caesars Palace last summer in Last Vegas, Nevada.
