I don’t like flying. I hate not being in control. I hate every bump and noise I can’t identify. I profile the other passengers. I know where my exits are. I pay close attention to the safety instructions even though I have heard them a hundred times. I monitor our route on line. I read the faces of the flight attendants making sure they are confident everything is going along as planned and nothing is out of the ordinary. I [...]
While we came to the city by the bay in search of the elusive San Francisco treat, “Rice or Roni” we found so much more! We stayed at the Five Star Four Seasons San Francisco is located in the Yerba Buena cultural district in downtown San Francisco, two blocks from Union Square, the Financial District, the Moscone Convention Center and the Museum of Modern Art. A welcome sight after a long drive of the coast. Sometimes our journey uncovers something really special. Luxury and comfort aside, this hotels beauty goes beyond skin deep and has a big & caring heart.
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!
While on our trip up the Pacific Coast Highway, we joined our friend Vicky Akins in a walk across the Golden Gate Bridge to check one more thing off our Bucket List.
Taking a helicopter trip to the Rose Glacier allowed Rick to knock two things off his bucket list in one day!
The 4th stop on our Rand McNally with USA TODAY Best of the Road Rally took us to Enterprise, Alabama which is called The City of Progress. They are a thriving community founded on the principle that with the right mix of people, adversity can easily turn into diversity. They have a rich military heritage because of their close relationship and proximity to neighboring Fort Rucker, the Home of Army Aviation.

While we missed 
Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice promoting her new sparkling wine, Fabellini on Friday night, all was not lost. There were exhibitors from Wineries & Vineyards from around the world. There was Barefoot Wine, Naked Grape, Happy Bitch and Graham’s & Cockburn’s Port. There was Brotherhood, America’s Oldest Winery and even Wine Sisterhood, who knew? It was Disney for Wine loving grown-ups. Aisle after aisle of wonderful wine.

The Midlife Road Trip stopped by a Tweet-Up in Kansas City and asked a few friends “What’s on your bucket list?”
Peter never gave up. Overcoming numerous obstacles and challenges, Peter Vosotas is an example of how taking control of your own destiny can lead you to the success you’ve always dreamed of. Twenty-five years after starting his company he got to check a big one off his professional Bucket List. We got to accompany this Nicholas Financial Chairman and CEO to the NASDAQ Stock Exchange in NYC to ring the closing bell.
A fun, behind the scenes look at the NASA tweetup before the space shuttle Discovery’s last mission, STS-133. Want to know what an astronaut has on his bucket list? Watch the video!
In their Journey from London to Ulaan Bataar, Mongolia, Rick and his Mongol Rally teammates, Dave, Deb and Sherry make their first stop in Brussels for some sight seeing as Rick checks something else off his Bucket List.
