How many speakeasy’s have you visited in Las Vegas How many speakeasy’s have you visited in Las Vegas? I tried an interactive experience @thevaultbellagio at Bellagio Resort. 

The mocktail watermelon spritz was beyond tasty. What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Am I right?

We camped within Monterey, California city limits We camped within Monterey, California city limits in our favorite campground. We could hear the ocean and watch deer and fawns wander in our campsite every night. 

One of the many reasons I love @seemonterey 

Do you enjoy camping? We started our roadtrip in Oregon’s Willamette Valley almost 2 weeks ago with Monterey, California being our final destination before heading home to Oregon.

@inalandscape Hunter Noack brings classical music @inalandscape Hunter Noack brings classical music in the wild. This silent piano concert is played on a 1912 Steinway grand piano while guests are provided with cordless headphones to listen and wander in a landscape. 

The 90 minute Lane County concert in Mount Pisgah is Noack’s 394th concert. What a setting at Howard Buford County Park Recreation Area. @lanecountyparks

See you next time!

Monterey Car Week is a popular event along with Co Monterey Car Week is a popular event along with Concours d’Elegance in Monterey County, California. It just wrapped up recently. 

It’s quite hilarious that my husband and I were at the Granddaddy @pebblebeachconcours and @pebblebeachresorts as my husband drives an F150 Ford truck that he adores. 

He and a buddy were golfing Spyglass at Pebble Beach Resort. However, I think he was one of the few in the parking lot driving a truck, unless you count the groundskeepers. 

We didn’t pay $550 per person to attend the car event. Fortunately for us, we camped in a Monterey campground. I’m not one for fighting crowds and circling for a parking spot for hours. 

That being said, I am excited to return for some of the hotel renovations happening in Carmel & Pebble Beach. 

My travel tip; arrive to @visitcarmel and @seemonterey County on the last day of car week. You can still see plenty of fancy Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Porsches, but you won’t be lost in the traffic.
