The Alabama Hills

 By John Treadwell Dunbar

No, the Alabama Hills are not in Alabama but are sprawled at the foot of the eastern Sierra Nevadas in California; large rounded boulders clustered like a spilled sack of potatoes at the foot of jagged Mt. Whitney (14,505’) and Lone Pine Peak. A perfect complement of mountain and desert landscapes, this hidden geologic wonderland begs for purple prose because the scenery will drop you to your knees and take your breath away.

Wupatki National Monument

 By John Treadwell Dunbar

In the long run maybe it’s good fortune that the Wupatki National Monument northeast of Flagstaff, Arizona resides in relative obscurity, never given a second thought by the millions who race north on 89 to crowd shoulder-to-shoulder and stare into the Grand Canyon.

Ghost Town Sleeps in the Shadow of Zion National Park

 By John Treadwell Dunbar

imageMost visitors lured to Zion National Park in southwestern Utah by the sheer towering walls of red sandstone, narrow slot canyons and shady cottonwoods that line the Virgin River have never heard of Grafton. They are unaware that a few miles before the park’s southern entrance, on the south side of the river tucked behind the trim and proper rural enclave of Rockville lie the remnants of an historical gem that has earned its place on the National Register of Historic Sites, and for good reason. Not only is it one of the most photogenic relics of pioneer heritage, but its history and the sweat and tear-soaked tale of struggle that Grafton’s hearty settlers endured is the stuff of Hollywood movies.

Prague, Fairytale City

 By Barry Napier

imageMy wife and I didn’t know what we expected, but our visit to Prague was better!

Our taxi was pre-booked, and we found our driver without a problem – maybe the large sign she held up with our name on it helped. The driver was a young mother, who was trying to keep herself and small daughter afloat, in a city with high unemployment.

Croatia: Tourism with a Limp?

 By Barry Napier

imageCroatia’s tourism industry is growing fast, and its daring Ten Year tourism plan, implemented by the Istria region (north-western Croatia), is starting to bear fruit. Accolades are already under the tourism ministry’s belt.  But, Croatia has been continually shooting itself in the foot since early last year, giving tourism prospects a distinct limp!

Kenya: Is It Safe to Travel There?

 By Dr. Gifford Jones

<br />
Dr. Gifford-Jones in Kenya (W. Gifford-Jones, M.D.)“Why are you and a group of journalists going to Kenya when there’s so much violence?” a friend said to me.

I stole my reply from Sir Edmund Hilary when asked why he wanted to climb Mount Everest. Hilary replied, “Because it’s there.” But I also questioned whether T.V. pictures were telling the complete story of what was happening in Kenya, and was it a safe destination.

It’s a long flight to Nairobi and my brain was fuzzy on arrival. But not so dull that I couldn’t see these newspaper headlines at the airport, “Fires raging in Kenya” or “What a sad day for Kenya.” I started to worry my friend might be right.

Serenity – A Cottage with a View

 By Christopher T. Nielsen

Graham’s Pioneer RetreatIt was my first visit to Nova Scotia and it was an adventure. The trip started with a stay overnight in Peggy’s Cove and ended in Halifax. In between were assignments of taking pictures of where old friends grew up. One of those places was Digby, N.S which is famous for its scallops.

One of the best places we stayed at was Graham’s Bayside Cottages. (Aka Graham’s Pioneer Retreat). They are located in “Digby Neck” 25kms west of Digby.

When you look up the word ‘serenity” in the dictionary, it means calmness. It also means “the state or quality of being serene”. Serenity is the perfect name of the cottage we rented. It was one of three cottages available to rent at this romantic, peaceful secluded resort.

Travel Tips

Drop the excess baggage

 By Online

Whether heading to visit family for the holidays or to a resort for a weekend getaway, it’s good to keep your luggage light. It’s easy for a bag of cold-weather apparel to weigh you down, so the ideal winter travel wardrobe should include stylish but durable clothing that repels stains, packs well and that you can mix and match easily.
