The History of Rhyolite, Nevada

Nevada. The Battle Born State. August 9, 1904.

Euphoric cries of joy spring from legendary old time prospector Frank “Shorty” Harris’ lips! 

“Ed, we’ve got the world by the tail, or else we’re coppered!” he hollers at his befuddled partner Ed Cross.

Travel Quotes: 20 Quotes that will INSPIRE you to get GOING!

It’s said that inspiration is a temporary thing. We’re incapable of being or feeling “inspired” every hour of every single day. Daily life fills up with appointments, obligations, family time, work time, dog walking, cable company phone calls, internet surfing, social media posting. Before we know it a day has become a week, a week … Read more

This list was last updated on Nov. 27, 2023.


Las Vegas was built on extremes.

All day, and each and every night, you can get your fix of gambling, booze, and just about anything else.

Beyond the gilded golden towers, mobs of tourists, and 99-cent margaritas, there are attractions waiting for those who live life with their adrenaline pedal pressed firmly down on the floor.

The list seems to be growing with each passing year, so this list will no doubt expand along with it, but for now, here are our votes for the top extreme attractions in Las Vegas in no particular order.

The Lights Fest Review

I always imagined that if I ever found myself sitting in the middle of an empty field, under the blazing sun, outside of Las Vegas, that something had gone horribly wrong and I was going to be the next occupant of one of the many talked-about but rarely found “holes in the desert.”

Instead, I was pleasantly surprised at this particular occasion, because I was at the 2019 Las Vegas Lights Fest. (It’s actually in Littlefield, Arizona, which is right outside Mesquite, Nevada, which itself, is an hour north of Las Vegas.)

There is plenty to love about this event and a few improvements that desperately need to happen if it’s going to be held in the same place any time in the future.

Review: Clear

If you’ve traveled to or from a major airport in the U.S. within the last two years you’ve probably noticed the signs for “CLEAR” as you’ve stood in line wondering what you did wrong to deserve the TSA screening process.

Then, just when you’re about to lose it because you can’t figure out how much 3-ounces is and if you need to throw your half-eaten Chipotle burrito away, you see some jerk walk to the front of the line and head straight to the not-invasive-at-all pat downs and shoe inspections.

That particular jerk? Yeah, that’s me.

No, I didn’t bribe anyone and I’m not special in any way.

I just use CLEAR.

Afternoon Adventure: Christmas time on the Las Vegas Strip

When most travelers think of Las Vegas they picture blackjack tables, roulette wheels, flashing lights and 24/7 liquor stores.

Every year nearly 40 million tourists arrive in Las Vegas from all corners of the world ready to drop their hard earned cash on the plethora of restaurants, shops and casinos that keep Vegas kicking.

Most folks probably don’t give much thought to Sin City around Christmas time, but the city really comes alive with beautiful scenes in each casino.

A Work Trip – 2 Days of Denver sunshine, Uber and Rugbytown USA

I’m always pleasantly surprised when fun business opportunities cross my desk.

Top it off with a place I’ve never been before and you’ve got one happy traveler.

This time a client I’ve previously worked with came calling once again, and once again the backdrop would be rugby, but the location changed to gorgeous Denver, Colorado. I guess technically this would be my second time to Denver, but the first time I touched down in the Mile High City I was 17 on my way to a skiing trip. I only really remember the airport how it looked almost two decades ago now.

Yikes. Insert old person joke here. Werther’s Original anyone?

Review: the Mother Lode TLS Weekender Convertible Backpack

There was a time, not too long ago, that I didn’t give two thoughts about what bag I brought with me on my travels.

That’s mainly because I didn’t do much traveling. None, in fact.

As I’ve ramped up my solo and work travels, I’ve found the need for something a little more flexible. Something like the Mother Lode TLS Weekender Convertible Backpack.

A Weekender – 3 Days in San Diego

Admittedly, I feel like a novice writing about San Diego. 

It’s one of those West Coast destinations that seems like a given to most people in America, not just adventurers and travel bloggers, but every day blue collar folks. This is a destination city. 

Still, at 35 years old, I found San Diego in my “hasn’t made time for it” bucket, where I keep things like skydiving or getting in shape.
