A Day in...Hamilton?. Honorable Mention in Twenty-Four Hours Challenge.
You don’t go to Hamilton; you end up there. I looked over the notes for this Challenge, and I realized that I would have to choose a place that I know too well. Tokyo was a temptation, as was the East End of London, Queens, New York, and a place called Ontario, California (strange to know that there is another Ontario out there). But no, I had to pick something close to me; a place that I cannot escape from.

Delawander. Runner-Up in Twenty-Four Hours Challenge.
Like Pat’s and Geno’s in Philly, such is the case with Capriotti’s. This classic Delaware eatery is popular and has been around for years and some still don’t know that a Bobbie® is nothing but a Thanksgiving meal on a roll. It’s arguably the most famous sandwich shop to come out of Delaware. It consists of turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce all slammed together on fresh bread. It tastes great and Cap’s is also famous for its Capistrami®, which is if pastrami and reuben sandwiches did a high five, but nothing compares to Casapulla’s tuna fish wraps. Feast your mind’s eye on the creamy, juicy and rich distinction that this seafood delight elicits. Bite into the decadent, luxurious flavors that delight the tongue and drive the mind. Welcome to Newark, Delaware.

"There Are Wolves Up There!"
My professor friend K and I went for a hike to the mountains around the town of Mestia in Svaneti, the highest region in Georgia. We wanted to see the Koruldi Lakes near the glacier at the foot of the two-peak Ushba mountain of the Greater Caucasus Range separating Georgia and Russia.

A Day In Settle
Introduction Settle is a favourite holiday haunt of ours. The first time we stayed we brought a car. It was parked, and it never moved til we left. Since then we have stayed for a week or two each year, getting there by train from Newcastle to Carlisle, then Carlisle to Settle over the Ribblehead Viaduct.

Anza Vista: The Small San Francisco Community that Hosts a Big Skateboarding Event.
Stairs Makes a Community The community of Anza Vista is relatively small, even for San Francisco’s standards. It comprises more than a dozen residential streets and is cordoned off in a rectangular grid between four major boulevards. Much of it is boxed in by other residential neighborhoods such as Jordan Park, North of the Pan Handle, and Inner Richmond.

The Last Frontier: Inside Slab City, America's Off-Grid Desert Kingdom
There are still places in America where the rules feel different, not in the sense that laws vanish entirely, but in the sense that the assumptions most people make about modern life simply stop applying. There is no city hall, no municipal water, no power company, no property taxes, no homeowners' association, no neighborhood watch, and no official government management. Just desert… and people. Lots of very unusual people.
