Things to See, Eat and Do in Bishop, California
Bishop is located in the Eastern Sierra region of California. It is close to Death Valley, Yosemite and Mammoth Lakes. The city is incredibly picturesque, sitting in-between 14,000 foot peaks, with the Bishop Creek running through the town. If you are familiar with the California Water Wars and the movie, Chinatown (1974), Bishop sits in the Owens Valley where the LADWP took the water from.

Hello, everyone! This post has been a long time coming, but this kind of content takes forever to make, so thanks for waiting. Hiking is one of my favorite pass times, and there are tons of parks I've had on my to-do list. Luckily, I've been able to squeeze in some park time at least once a week to bring you this.

In 1896, local miners discovered gold in the Klondike region of Yukon in northwest Canada. The news hit Seattle and San Francisco, and then a stampede of prospects descended on the area looking for wealth. Over 100,000 people with gold fever rushed into Klondike in only three short years. Most of them got a whole bunch of nothing for their trouble.

It’s important to note sometimes God has really pissed me off. When my daughter got cancer, I stopped trusting for a while; when Mom died, I doubted he had my best interests in mind. But when the oldest daughter suffered a stroke, I stopped talking to God for a while — except when I was praying for her recovery. Let’s just say, that event was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I would consider myself to be a planner, however when you move to a new city there are things that you just can't plan for because there's no way to know or prepare yourself for them.

No state in America can claim the degree of contrasts that you find in New York. There’s New York City, of course, which pulses with both density and intensity. Then there’s the rest of the Empire State (mostly referred to as “upstate” by folks in the Big Apple), which dwarfs the city in size and sprawls with beautiful countryside, small towns, mountains and wonders such as Niagara Falls. When you visit New York, you can be hailing a cab on Fifth Avenue in the morning, and be at a pastoral winery in Hudson River Valley or stepping onto the sand in the Hamptons by lunch. New York travel options are filled with bucket-list destinations, from the Broadway theatres in Times Square to visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown or skating on Olympic ice in Lake Placid. Read on in this New York travel guide to chart your course through the Empire State:

My partner, daughter ( who was about twelve at the time), and I were on the road after spending Christmas in the USA in a winter wonderland. We planned to head off to Death Valley as we had never been there in the winter months. We thought it might be more pleasant temperature-wise than on previous trips when the sun beat down on us mercilessly and totally sapped us of energy every time we left the comfort of our car. We have experienced these fierce temperatures here in Australia during our travels and personally, I don’t enjoy scorching in the searing sun. However, if you want to see our amazing world you have to suffer discomfort sometimes.
