New Haven, Connecticut has a bad rep. To most, it's at best a town you travel through on your way between Boston and New York. But as I've written recently in my travel series on New Haven, the town has experienced a tremendous renaissance in the ...

The leaves haven't started to change in Columbus, Ohio-- yet, but they will--soon. This morning the air was crisp and cool. Yep, leaf changing conditions are here, and I expect edges of red will appear in a couple of weeks until eventually there will ...

Following up on the post I did yesterday on the solar eclipse that made its way across Africa and parts of Europe yesterday, I figured I'd post a story from Yahoo news that has some sweet pictures. What a bummer we didn't get to see it here in the ...
