Thoughts, experiences and adventures from a resident of DelSo aka Delaware Avenue South in Albany, N.Y.
No, really. What do you enjoy doing when you visit Las Vegas beyond going to see your favorite live band in the world’s newest and coolest new venue? Early next month, my sweetie and I are heading to Vegas to watch the lads play the Sphere and I’m trying to get a sense of what … Continue reading What happens in Vegas?
Picking up where I left off in Part I, it’s now time to start filling in some more details. One thing I’ve learned with experience is that it’s worth taking the time to do a bit of research before committing to specific dates and destinations. For instance, while it may make the most sense in … Continue reading Tripping, Part II

Remember a few weeks ago when it felt like the entire world was on fire? While the tragedy in Lahaina may no longer be in the headlines, … Continue reading Maui wowie
I’ve been a loyal user of Airbnb for more than a decade, staying in properties in 7 or 8 countries and on both coasts of the U.S. According to the app, I’ve taken 22 trips during the past ten years or so. What isn’t really reflected in the app, however, is how pleased I’ve been … Continue reading Losing sleep overAirbnb.
