There were a lot of trails at different hiking levels that offered great views. Here […]

My new favorite place in the U.K. is now Isle of Skye. There was a beauty that I was not fully prepared for.

People are afraid to stand up when they know something is wrong and continue on with it just like it was done during slavery and during the civil rights era.

It’s rare that I am upset or indifferent after an American wins a gold medal. This is exactly what I and 50,000 spectators felt when Justin Gatlin won the gold medal at the IAFF World Championships in London. This race was to be Bolt’s last solo race and he was expected to finish a winner. He has not only dominated track but sports like so few have done. Even though he lost he is still […]
