I love to visit San Diego, CA.  It’s really got some beautiful spots, and there’s so much more to do there than just visit the beach. And San Diego, CA hotels range from the simple efficiency type to full-blown resorts.  Some of the hotels there are attractions in and of themselves!
But I wouldn’t want to [...]

The world of photo printing has exploded in recent years.  It used to be that you could only successfully print on specially treated or bonded paper to achieve beautiful prints, and that you could very rarely find a printer to print a photo onto canvas for an exorbitant fee.  Enter in the internet printers, and [...]

I’ve been looking at a ton of dragon tattoos for myself, and some Libra tattoos for my girlfriend. She’s been pretty interested in getting a tattoo for some time now. It will be her first tattoo, and my third. Tattoo designs have been sparse for the type of dragon I want to get, but there [...]

Every time I go to the pet store to get food I end up buying another toy for my cat.  The problem is my cat never wants to play with the toys I purchase him.  Clearly, he had no interest in the average to mediocre toys I kept bringing him, and to be honest I [...]

Here are a few tips to consider when decorating your Christmas tree.

I never use Tanning Lotion myself because I am naturally a golden brown even at my whitest, thanks to my half-Hawaiian heritage. I go out in the sun and I never burn, I just turn this offensive (apparently to my white friends) beautiful brown. Meanwhile they are applying sunscreen and Tanning Lotions trying to achieve [...]

Phoenix is getting a new park near the Arizona State University campus.  The park is meant to weave together ASU and the nearby neighborhood, giving students and tourists a place to relax in the bustling city. 
Specific details about the park have yet to surface and current budget cuts may threaten to halt any progress on [...]

Searching for a home can be so daunting and time consuming that it almost takes out the excitement of moving to a new location. When my husband’s boss told him that his job was moving to California two months ago, we were overwhelmed by the thought of having to find a new place to live [...]
