Don Quijotes Spanish Restaurante
Don Quijote’s Spanish Restaurante [adrotate group=”6″] Indiana’s oldest and only authentic Spanish restaurant I enjoy good food. Finding good food can present a challenge at times, especially when you travel to places that are not exactly tourist attractions. Northwest Indiana is one of those places. While Cracker Barrel and Steak and Shake are okay in a pinch, they do not exactly meet my standards for a quality meal. Don Quijote’s Restaurante in downtown Valparaiso definitely is the exception to the rule as far as good food is concerned. I first heard of the place when driving here from Chicago. There …
Death Valley National Park
Death Valley Days [adrotate group=”6″] Adventure in the Mojave Desert As we headed home from Las Vegas we decided to take a detour to one of California’s most overlooked destinations, Death Valley. Death Valley offers some amazing scenery along with its abundance of minerals. Traveling to Death Valley reminds me of what it might be like to visit another planet. [adrotate group=”1″]

Winter Sunsets
Winter Sunsets [adrotate group=”6″] Looking over the Palos Verdes Peninsula Every once in a while I fire up one of the bikes around sunset and head up to the hills.

Gu Gu Sushi
Gu Gu Sushi [adrotate group=”6″] Specialty Rolls Gu Gu Sushi is my go to place when I want to blow someone away. I have taken so many people here and everyone walks away with the same, “we have to do that again” response. I let the first time visitor pick whatever they want, because the most mediocre roll I ever had there was pretty dang good. If you like sushi, and are close to Hermosa Beach, do yourself a favor. You can thank me later. [adrotate group=”1″]
