San Antonio's Hemisfair Civic Park is a cool place to hang out year-round. I reported on the urban oasis on the transformed acreage of the city's 1968 World's Fair grounds for AAA Explorer Texas Magazine.

Experience the wondrous history of Ireland through hosted outdoor sports on the Emerald Isle at Ashford Castle, Glenlo Abbey & Cashel Palace.
I loved experiencing sporty Irish "country pursuits" at Ireland's luxury hotels. My story in the March/April 2024 issue of Hook & Barrel Magazine features traditional outdoor sports steeped in Irish history, culture, and folklore. From horse riding and Thoroughbred racing to clay shooting, fishing, and falconry, avid sports travelers like me find plenty of thrilling adventures on the Emerald Isle. End an active day dining on fabulous food foraged, fished, and harvested from Ireland's wilds.

Flyover Chicago, an airborne sensory film journey, stars the city's soul. This is a new, permanent attraction at Navy Pier. No cameras are allowed during the dynamic drone-shot film, but this reel of my media visit is a primer to what you'll see, who you'll meet, and how it feels to experience Flyover Chicago. Set to an original soundtrack performed by Chicago musicians, the dramatic drone cinematography swoops up 13,000 feet up and around the facades of Chicago's famous skyscrapers, over expansive Lake Michigan, through urban streetscapes, and into world-renowned cultural venues. Guests experience Flyover Chicago's film journey in three immersive phases, which include showcasing the city's musical legacy, introducing diverse neighborhoods, and hearing from Chicagoans telling their stories of why they love their hometown. All this builds up to the fluid flight-line, energetic 9-minute film guests view on a 65-foot spherical screen while strapped into a flight motion seat apparatus. Swoop, dip, curve, twist, and dive "flying" through Chicago at seemingly superhero speed some moments, and others glide effortlessly like a seagull around the city's iconic lakefront skyline. Chicagoans appearing in the film (who I met on media day and are in the reel) call this attraction, "a love letter to my city." If you live here, GO. You'll ❤️ it, and be proud to be a Chicagoan. Entertainment industry star creatives and lots of local talent collaborated with @pursuitcollection to create Flyover Chicago: Creative Director Rick Rothschild, a 30-year Disney imagineer veteran; Cannes Lion Award-winning film writer/director David Mossop; film composer Elliott Wheeler, also composer of Baz Luhrmann's Elvis biopic; Chicagoan, founder of The City Lights Orchestra, and Flyover Chicago film music director Rich Daniels; Chicago film producer Rich Lederer, also producer of Empire; expert drone pilot Gabriel Kocher, a PhD astrophysicist and global champion drone racing pilot; pro
