Having time to kill, some of the glorious old neon still lurking about Las Vegas. And finally, the Art-o-Mats at the Cosmopolitan Hotel.

If I stopped at every piece of roadside nostalgia then I would not get very far in my travels. So I have reserved early mornings for driving about towns to grab what I can while everyone is asleep. To follow, mostly Yuma, Arizona. This cleaners was still in operation. An Read more…

Behold a Madrid photodump! As I write this from my couch, it’s hard to imagine this backdrop was at my disposable for several days. I decided I needed to see more of the Old World… for the architecture alone. Ok, and their cemeteries. In the meantime… This was on a Read more…

I have a thing for vintage neon. Just like I have a thing for vintage anything, in general. And speaking of vintage, this is the one of the best vintage shops I’ve ever been to! Junkee. To Reno, a place with a lot of stuff I love.

The Heart of the Mother Road, I very much enjoyed my stay in Tucumcari, New Mexico. The whole town embraces roadtrip culture as bygone ruins stand next to thriving road establishments in a sort of living museum. Seemingly frozen in time, I was able to book my stay at a Read more…

{18 and older for this post, please.} Despite the growing realm of vegan options, we were not with many options for vegan x-rated baked goods. Then Kinky’s Dessert Bar came along with its tantalizing space on the Lower East Side in Manhattan. To follow, the explicit images from my visit. Read more…

One thing to take note of when driving on the backroads of Vermont while using Google Maps GPS… they don’t really care if they put you on a steep dirt road winding into the mountains like the long driveway of some geezer living off the grid barely. That is how Read more…

What I love about shore towns is that they’re often like carnivals that stay permanently. And if they’re not there permanently, chances are I’d enjoy them even more wandering around their decay. Vintage, kitsch and color: 💜🧡💚 in Ocean City, New Jersey. I’m putting this here to remember to come Read more…

Las Vegas is an ideal start/end for escapes to the desert’s surrounding natural beauty. But before I run to the red rocks of Utah, some of Vegas’s offerings, starting with an immediate drive to all-vegan VegeNation. I was shocked to learn that their head chef Donald Lemperle has major New Read more…

Sometimes I like to put stuff in front of a huge blue thing and take their picture. All of these pictures are hashtag: ThisSky. And tons of my favorite photographic subject matter. The wheels in the sky keep on turning. (Atlantic City & Wildwood, New Jersey) Run-down vintage neon porn Read more…

Today ended with thunder and lightening and torrential downpours, telling me “Stay put and get some sleep!” Ok, I had to say. Lightening when the sky is this big is its own draw, but I suppose I won’t run out at midnight tonight. Maybe at 11 though… I set out Read more…

There’s something about the last day of a trip that lights a fire under your butt. So with the sunrise, I sought to make the most of my last day in Albuquerque. And that means I start with a good breakfast. Ok, a really good breakfast! I headed to hotspot Read more…

I love everything about being on the road. I get to eat everything up, using all my senses. And things are old and rundown yet ooze life. And there is weirdness, an endless supply of weirdness. Style and colors Textures Color Function Oh and this is just a motel tip Read more…

I woke up in Cincinnati, Ohio and went to bed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This means that, likely, I will spend tomorrow evening in my own bed. New York. Though I am squeezing in brief stops as I pass through, this excursion is winding down. But I still need sustenance and Read more…

I arrived in Nashville in the early a.m. One, because of entering the Central Time zone and two, more so, because I left Sweetwater, TN at the crack of dawn. I just didn’t know what to expect as far as traffic. But it was smooth sailing and I arrived with Read more…

It’s morning in Shenandoah, and the sun overcomes its obstacles. As usual. How perfect is a morning? Fresh and potent with opportunity and intention. Never you mind what becomes of it; that’s the evening’s problem to solve. The clouds veil the light, hiding the blue, so you don’t take it Read more…
