An excellent romantic getaway.  No phones, some rooms have no TV (opinion was mixed on that one, but we liked it), and all the rooms are limited to two occupants so you can't bring kids even if you wanted to (of course, that could infringe on some…More »

Expensive, but friendly service and tasty food.  Their Olympian plate was a perfect combination of all my favorites - domathes, Greek salad, gyro, and falafel, with pita and tzatziki.  Spanakopita was good but an order is one big triangle, so sharing…More »

A friend of ours who lives in Idyllwild directed us to this place for lunch.  A little expensive for what you get, but a nice selection of nummables, and completely customizable smoothies.  They also sell organic produce and new age junk.

$10-$15 per…More »

An impressive array of sodas chilled and ready for imbibing.  Dozens of varieties of less ubiquitous candies (maple bun, anyone?)  All the coke paraphernalia you could ever want (the drink, that is.)

Cooking stuff, cookbooks, jams and jellies, syrups, baking mixes.  This n' that n' the other stuff too.  I could spend a thousand bucks in a place like this, but my wife would kill me.

We were dinking around in here forever looking for a gift for my…More »

We came here for our 12th Anniversary dinner, and it was beautiful garlic overload!  My wife had spinach ravioli with chicken which was delicious.  I had lasagne which I was hoping would be a little more boldly flavored, but was saved with a roasted…More »

Kerrville, TX and environs.

Prince Edward Island (18)

Yes, it exists!  It's in Canada!  Even though the employees of the airline that gets you there have never heard of it or know where it is!  This list is now expanded and complete now that Yelp discovered Canada.

Big Bear (7)

Ski and eat, or in my case, just eat.

Our weekend in Modesto, where I was playing the X Fest.

NYC (13)

3.3 stars!  You can't fly across the country just to see Genesis at Giants Stadium.  You have to spend a few days doing other crap too!  Here's the other crap we did:

3.6 stars!  If you happen to be taking the exact same trip as us then...
