TravelAs I've mentioned more than a few times before, after purchasing a pair of water-resistant Allbirds Runner-Up Mizzles a few years back, they quickly became my go-to travel shoe. That's because they're not only comfortable but also help protect my feet from wet weather while on the road (there are few things I hate more...
TravelLast week, I set off for San Francisco from my home in Springfield, Missouri. But, since I was flying Delta, I of course needed to make a stop in Atlanta before my flight back in the correct direction. Over the years, I've spent plenty of time at ATL, so when something new pops up, I...
TravelWhen it comes to my Travel Tuesday hotel review series, I often wonder what travels might be featured in my latest installment. That's when it hit me that: instead of looking to other cities for adventure, I could feature a property found right here in Springfield, Missouri. Hotel Vandivort is a unique boutique hotel we’d...
TravelUpdated on May 5, 2026 To me, one of the most annoying parts of traveling in 2026 is ensuring that I pack chargers for all of the various devices I plan on bringing with me. That's why, in the past, I've been a fan of Rolling Square's InCharge multi-purpose cables that have built-in adapters. But,...
TravelIn recent years, there's been a lot of talk about how Las Vegas is far from the value destination that it once was. Heck, I've written about this phenomenon as well — and have felt it first-hand to great frustration. Well, presumably in response, two Strip hotels are introducing something a bit different. Recently, Luxor...
TravelA funny thing happened to me recently when I was booking a hotel. When Googling a property I had seen listed, I was surprised to find that "The Nash" in Nashville, ironically, didn't rank well (something in Dallas kept coming up). Well, it turns out that this is because The Nash was previously known as...
TravelUpdated on April 1, 2026 Right before the pandemic, I was booking an Allegiant flight to Las Vegas and saw an option for Allegiant Extra. This upgrade included extra legroom, priority boarding, and other perks. Naturally, as something of an Allegiant connoisseur, I had to try it. Of course, as you can imagine, that trip...
TravelOver the past few weeks, travel has been a bit... treacherous. Overlooking international matters, here at home, several airports have been inundated with long lines and closed checkpoints due to the partial government shutdown that's left TSA workers without pay. But, a silver lining has emerged as Allegiant has just launched a new flyer-friendly policy...
TravelUpdated on March 23, 2026 When my wife and I are traveling and working, one of the biggest considerations is how we're going to get our morning coffee. It's not even like we're big caffeine addicts or need our java to function, but coffee has become something we look forward to enjoying every morning as...
TravelUpdated on February 12, 2026 Note: The Moderne Gentleman bag featured here has been discontinued. However, this article has been updated with details about Halfday throughout and continues to compare it to the Moderne Gentleman Travel Duffle as it was. A while back, I shared a look at the Moderne Gentleman Travel Duffle. As you...
TravelYou may have heard of Amex's Fine Hotels & Resorts program (as well as the similar-but-different Hotel Collection program). You might have also heard of The Edit by Chase. Heck, you might have even caught wind of Bilt's Home Away From Home program. But did you know that Capital One also has a hotel program...
TravelUpdated on March 5, 2026 Years ago, I purchased a pair of Allbirds Wool Runner Mizzles on the theory that they might make a good travel shoe thanks to their comfortable materials and water-repellent treatment. While I found that hypothesis to mostly be true, I did think there was some room for improvement. Sometime later,...
