While sifting through photos of our journeys since Midlife Road Trip first began, I was struck not only by the myriad of places we’ve traveled, but by the variety of ways we managed to get from Point A to Point B. Whether by land, sea, or air, it’s all a part of the adventure. LAND Being a show with “Road Trip” in its name, we naturally spend a lot of time in cars. But cars […]
All these health benefits possessed by spaghetti squash can replace pasta and can be a healthy choose to. It helps our optimal cellular function and in the development of new cells. Spaghetti Squash is a pale yellow or orange-yellow gourd, while the intestine is usually filled with pumpkin, while boiling the flesh itself leaves the fiber, which can be used as spaghetti noodles. You can replace this pumpkin with ordinary pumpkin in soup recipes, grilling […]
On the top of the Nashville, to-do list was an evening at the Grand Ole Opry with a backstage tour.
It’s no secret that we love to eat. In our travels, we’ve been blessed to experience some of the best food on the planet. We’ve compiled a list of 10 sandwiches that should be a part of your culinary Bucket List! We have pictures of some of these sandwiches. Others were devoured before we took out our cameras, still they made a good enough impression to be included in this list. 1. Muffuletta from Central […]
Between drafty airplanes and temperatures that fluctuate through times zones, wearing a Pashmina has become a stylish essential for travel.
Sedona, Arizona Here’s a collection of fifty (plus) of our favorite photos from our most recent trip to Sedona, Arizona as a part of our cross country adventure with Amtrak. We were totally mesmerized by the breathtaking desert scenery which served as the perfect backdrop for Sandi to find her zen. We enjoyed shopping in town and stopping by some of the quirky shops along Route 66. In one, we found some unique items – like […]
A road trip is about much more than a destination. It’s about the overall journey – where you go, what you experience, and how you get there. Toyota recently hosted me on a couple of incredible road trips where I got to experience fly fishing, off-roading, trap shooting and the longest zip line canopy tour in the WORLD! Better yet, I was provided with a 2017 Toyota Tacoma XSP to make the trips. Zip Lining […]
When you think of Napa, California, you think of wine, as you most certainly should. Napa Valley produces some of the finest wines in the world. Every serious oenophile has a pilgrimage to Napa on his or her Bucket List. But even if you’re not really into wine, Downtown Napa offers a thriving food, and art scenes with plenty of opportunities for shopping, entertainment, and adventure. Throw in a well developed riverfront, some cool architecture, […]
Here is a collection of some of our favorite photos from Budapest Hungary from our adventure on the Danube River with Viking River Cruises. The entire catalog of our Budapest photos can be found on our Flickr page.
As an avid wine lover it is not shocking that Napa, California is one of my favorite destinations. I last visited the city in 2014 and spent the majority of my time in downtown Napa. One of the things I love about staying downtown is that many of the area winemakers have tasting rooms in the city and rather than driving from vineyard to vineyard to sample wines, I can simply walk. I also love that […]
Knowing that I’m a fan of chicken, bacon, and jalapeños, one of my Facebook friends recently shared a recipe for Bacon BBQ Chicken Bombs. Intrigued with the concept and the photos, I decided to make my own version of a chicken bomb – Bacon Wrapped Chicken Cordon Bleu Bombs! I love working with Sanderson Farms and developing recipes with their products. Their Thinly Sliced Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets are perfect for this recipe as […]
Charleston, South Carolina is one of our favorite destinations. We’ve made multiple trips over the years and are looking forward to returning later this month. No matter how many times we visit, I always find something worthy of a photo. Here photo album of some of our favorite photos from our adventures in Charleston. WARNING: You’re going to see lots of churches, flower boxes, and FOOD! Charleston has entered the upper echelon of great […]

Wine, food and celebrities – what more could you want? The South Beach Wine and Food Festival is like Spring Break for adults. We got to sample the creations from some of the best known chefs in the world!
We at Midlife Road Trip believe in pursuing our passions. I have always been passionate about travel. But over the last few months in working on various projects for Sanderson Farms, I have developed a serious passion for cooking and eating chicken. As a result, I’ve been inspired to proudly proclaim that “I’m a Chicken Man!” While I’m not an especially good singer, there’s no denying I loves me some chicken! I hope this music video will inspire […]
We went behind the scenes at the Michel-Schlumberger winery in the Dry Creek Valley of Sonoma, California where we learned a thing or two about organic farming from winemaker and vice president of production, Mike Brunson. We saw everything from vine to bottle, comparing our experience to the likes Disney but for grown-ups and without the noise, the crowds, or kids! We soaked up the countryside and sipped the fruit of the wineries labor. Michel-Schlumberger wines […]
Learning to ski has been on Sandi’s bucket list for a long time, so we ventured to Utah so she could take ski lessons on the Greatest Snow on Earth! Check out these great tips for anyone skiing this season.
We always love tagging along with others when they get to fulfill their Bucket List dreams. Here’s a fun behind the scenes look at the Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Alabama with our friend Max Akins, where we drove real NASCAR race-cars at speeds of 174mph!
Here’s a behind the scenes look at our college football game day adventures in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Be sure and watch the out-takes at the end of the video:)
Tailgating is one of our favorite fall activities. There’s something about meandering through large enthusiastic crowds with the smell of charcoal, lighter fluid, and grilled meats permeating the air that guarantees a good time. Even if you’re not particularly a fan of football, the experience is worthy of any bucket list.
We met some incredible people, tasted some amazing food, and picked up some great tailgating tips before a college football game at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa.
