This past weekend I was working in 29 Palms for a couple days so I added a few must stops while I was in town. A kitschy and charming little gem of a museum out in the middle of nowhere, the Beauty Bubble Salon and Museum needs to be added to your high desert travel bucket list. There’s also a short documentary Inside the Beauty Bubble, coming soon to streaming.
Friday Escape
Where have your summer travels taken you this year? I'm adding Venezuela to my bucket list! South American is not only home to the widest waterfall, but also the highest. At 3,212 feet high, the Salto Angel in southeast Venezuela is the highest free-falling waterfall on earth.
Day Trips
A much needed weekend getaway to the San Diego coast. We started the weekend on a high seeing Spiritbox play an intimate show in downtown San Diego and then we spent the rest of the weekend exploring bookstores I had on my to visit list and relaxed by the ocean. How was your weekend?
Dreaming of Connecticut
It’s the end of the fall and as we enter into the winter season all I can think about is visiting my brother’s house in Connecticut. His front yard is lightly covered in snow and all I want to do is cuddle near the fireplace with my niece and nephew, stay in bed and read, and indulge in some hearty chicken noodle soup and a grilled cheese.
Friday Escape
I'm not one who is super into astronomy, but visiting the Swiss Alps is definitely on my list of things to see. The Sphinx Observatory was built in 1931 and is located 11,716 feet high up in the Alps. Inside it's research station there are laboratories for meteorology, astronomy and medicine. Underneath the protective dome there is a massive telescope that researches can use to look out into the vastness of the universe. Visitors can take a high speed elevator to an observation deck and enjoy the spectacular view of the surrounding mountains.
