Meeting Butler County, Ohio

I was invited to spend a long weekend in Butler County, Ohio, just after they became Wheel The World certified for accessibility. The tourism board wanted me to write about how wheelchair accessible the region is. I hadn’t been there before, and it sounded like an interesting area, so I made plans to go. My trip to Butler County turned out to be one of my most unusual adventures, with new experiences, and a lot of donuts!   I brought Teddy and my friend, Heather, along for the ride, about three and a half hours from home.

Introducing... Wine And Spirits Travel Guide to Australia

I was photographing some of the most beautiful places in the world and I wouldn't give up until I had a product that did it justice.

In the spirit (pardon the pun) of my guide to Champagne, France, this guide puts my blogs in portable format (print or kindle) with extra information, photographs and links to the places you don't want to miss.

The Australia guide contains many more pages and photographs then the first one did. Let me know what you think of this one and what you think my next one should be.
