Looks Like We’ll Need To Revisit Dallas
Dallas was a washout. We just spent 12 nights there and only had a couple of days where it didn't rain. There was so much rain that we were getting flash flood warnings on our phone. That meant we spent much more time at our hotel than expected. We'd been given a ton of … [Read more...] about Looks Like We’ll Need To Revisit Dallas
Our Time At The State Fair Of Texas In Dallas

5 Non-Boring Things To Do In Peoria, Illinois
I'll be honest - Peoria, Illinois was a bit of a snoozefest. We spent six nights there on our 50 state road trip as we got a great deal on a hotel using our points.

Lakefront Brewery Tour: The Best Beer Tour Ever
I can't believe it took me so long to work it out. Despite being from the UK, I've been into baseball since 1998.
