Byteful Travel presents Red Rock Canyon Review: 3 Unmissable Sights posted at Byteful Travel, saying,

But when I visited Red Rock Canyon on the outskirts of Las Vegas, I stood corrected. Because this place is basically *Martian*. Beautiful & Martian. Don’t believe me? By the end of this article, you will.”
Pamela Jorrick presents Tidepools, Bridges and Locks posted at Blah, Blah, Blog, saying,
“Seattle is a city where we could have easily spent a lot more time than we had…There is so much to see and do- and much of it is free or cheap which is exactly the way we like to roll whenever possible… I’m a tropics kind of gal, and it was way too chilly for me to head out on any boats, which would be fun in some other, warmer season. Still, there was plenty of other fun to be had near the water.”
