    Exploring the South End of the Strip at The Berkley, Las Vegas in Nevada

    February 23, 2026 /

    Story, photos and video by Cassie Hepler I almost gave up on Las Vegas, Nevada. My first visit was with the vagtastic voyage gals via Philadelphia in 2010 I think for a blow out birthday bash at The Luxor which yes, some of those stories will forever stay in Vegas. Fast forward to the last couple of times I visited and honestly, it was giving Get Out vibes each time. I couldn’t see the allure or appeal of staying anywhere on the strip, it just seemed too fast and stressful. When you go from city to city, there is no downtime only chaos and confusion to the next spot. I…

    Why CBD Is a Natural Solution for Unwinding During Travel

    June 30, 2025 /

    Let’s be honest – travel can be absolutely exhausting, even when it’s supposed to be fun. Between navigating crowded airports, dealing with flight delays, adjusting to new time zones, and sleeping in unfamiliar beds, what should be an adventure often turns into a stress marathon. You may find yourself lying awake at 3 a.m. in hotel rooms, mind racing about tomorrow’s itinerary while your body refuses to adjust to the local time. While many travelers reach for a glass of wine or rely on over-the-counter sleep aids, there’s a growing interest in CBD as a more natural approach to managing travel-related stress. Unlike quick fixes that might leave you groggy…

    Philadelphia Flower Show Blooms Outdoors for 2021 Season

    February 15, 2021 /

    The Pennsylvania Convention Center has been home base for PHS Philadelphia Flower Show exhibits since 1996. “Who can say that a buttercup shining in the sun like yellow enamel is not as enchanting as a white butterfly tumbling out of a tree trunk in a Brazilian jungle? That the delicate beauty of a white wild anemone excels the orderly perfection of the petals in a white camellia? “When I took time to look into the heart of a flower, it opened up a whole new world; a world where every walk would be an adventure, where every garden would become an enchanted garden.” – Princess Grace of Monaco Story, photos…
