Happy 10th Birthday to ! It was our first time aboard! We were at 550 feet above the Las Vegas Strip with a cold adult beverage in our hands and marveling at the sites.

It’s the beautiful seaside community of Pismo Beach! Close to San Luis Obispo, with some great restaurants, hotels, and beach access. It’s a great place to stay in between Hearst Castle and Solvang, California’s “Little Denmark!” Visit Pismo Beach Visit California
We’re headed to California’s Central Coast by way of beautiful Paso Robles. Spend an evening or two ensconced in wine country. Reasonably priced tastings at family-owned vineyards and excellent farm-to-fork dining in the quaint downtown are highlights but so is the amazing Sensorio, an outdoor evening lights experience unique in the western U.S. And you’re also a stone’s throw from the charming communities of Cambria, Cuyucos, and Morro Bay, and don’t forget Hearst Castle. One of our favorite beachside hotels is close by too, complete with fireplaces overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
We’re in Baldwin Park! Just east of Los Angeles on “The 10.” The “car culture” of the greater Los Angeles area produced many related businesses, but especially fast food companies, including McDonald’s, Del Taco, Taco Bell, and In-N-Out. Baldwin Park is home to In-N-Out. A recreation of the original, complete with the original menu, cigarette dispenser, and the company’s famous crossed palm trees sit in the shadow of I-10. A short walk away is a campus with a new restaurant, company store, and the University of In-N-Out. Groups welcome!
As we say goodbye to April, not too far from Seattle the comes to a close.

Flock to the fields in April 2025 - we’ll show you the way! valley .state

As the Route 66 Centennial Commission prepares to celebrate the 100th birthday of the highway in 2026, it’s clear that the “Mother Road” is still a living piece of American history.
It’s a pretty impressive place to go wine tasting! Even for large groups! Grab a glass of a great wine and wander through several rooms of impressive memorabilia from films directed by Francis Ford Coppola. The Tucker automobile on display was particularly cool! A great restaurant too!

We’re back on the Mother Road! Route 66 celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2026. We love showing off the many sites that still exist in California between Needles and Santa Monica, especially those that border on the more kitschy! Elmer’s Bottle Ranch is located in between Barstow and Victorville.
It’s a stunning day in Kings Beach at Lake Tahoe! The communities along the north shore pride themselves in welcoming visitors to an area that still serves as a summer playground for the rich and famous as well as those with more modest incomes. Mansions exist next door to campgrounds and condos. Family-owned businesses, including restaurants and motels and bed and breakfasts, still line the thin ribbons of highways. The Gatekeepers Museum and the Lake Tahoe Maritime Museum in nearby Tahoe City and Homewood feature artifacts from the lake’s Native American tribes and it’s storied history. #visitcalifornia #visittahoe #renotahoe #renotahoeusa #grouptravel #grouptour #californisla #travel #kingsbeach #tahoecity #homewood #maritime #maritimehistory #nativeamerican #nativeamericanhistory
