Hungry for Okinawa
Hungry for Okinawa Okinawa, Japan, a Sub-Tropical island in the East China Sea. It is 17 miles wide at its widest point and 2 miles at its narrowest, 68 miles from tip to tip. This beautiful island boasts amazing beaches, staggering cliffs, a diverse history. Not to mention it has some of the kindest people I have ever met and known.

Top Chevy Muscle Cars
"Drove my Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry." Chevrolet is one of the best American car manufacturers still around, and it has become celebrated in songs, music videos, and movies. Much like Ford, Chevrolet has often been called one of the top muscle car companies in the world.

Have You Ever Had Your Fortune Told on Your Travels?

Today, it was open for free as part of the state’s “Free Fridays” program, so my mom and I went there to meet Ruth, an old friend of her’s. The drive from Gloucester was about an hour and 40 minutes.

Luxury cars are known for being elegant, having a ton of features, and for being a status symbol in their own right. Unfortunately, one thing that luxury cars aren't known for is reliability. After all, part of the luxury car package is being able to claim you can maintain it and keep driving it.
Skunk UzekiPublished 7 years ago in WheelMystery Spot
Just outside Santa Cruz, California amongst the massive redwoods there is a little known place called The Mystery Spot. The place sets itself apart from time, urbanization, and gravity. Yes, gravity. A short hike up the mountain side sits a small cabin that defies one of the greatest forces in the universe. How is that possible? It is a Mystery.
