LA Acoustic Music Festival – June 6-7, 2009
It wasn’t that long ago we took a trip to Santa Monica Pier for a little general entertainment. If we’d only waited a month we could have thrown in a soundtrack as well. That’s because in barely more than a month, the famous pier will be awash in the soulful, non-amplified strums of guitar at [...]
A Mother’s Day Getaway – An Unusual Mother’s Day Gift
The question fluttered around the office for quite a few days: should we do Mother’s Day or not? We’re happy to support the holiday and all, but really, do people travel for Mother’s Day? What the mothers in the office finally decided was that whether or not they do, they most absolutely should!
Gee, I guess [...]
Chicago Blues Festival 2009 – Free Chicago Events
I’m not going to feign expertise here, my knowledge of blues music consists entirely of playing Clapton’s version of “Crossroads” in Guitar Hero and watching the last five minutes of Blues Brothers 2000 (sorry, I’m a metalhead). I do know music festivals, though, and even in a city like Chicago, where it seems there’s a [...]
2009 Sweet Corn Fiesta and Eating Contest – South Florida Events
It’s been a rather cultured, civilized kind of week here at USA Travel Guide, so for Friday I thought we’d do something a little different: competitive corn eating. It’s a little last minute, but if you happen to live in southeastern United States, here’s a great idea for this weekend.
Technically, the 2009 Sweet Corn Fiesta [...]
Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill – Lexington, KY Attractions
It’s shaping up to be a rather eclectic week. Jazz, contemporary art, opera, and today we’ve got an interpretive history museum? I’m starting to wonder who’s really running this thing?
Tomorrow we’ll get back to more important things (like hamburgers), but for now let’s take a fascinating journey into the American past at the Shaker Village [...]
Spoleto Festival USA – Charleston, South Carolina Events
No matter where you live in the United States, if there’s a sizable population in your town there’s a good chance you have at least one sister city. But do you know which it is? According to Wikipedia, we have eight here in the Big D, ranging every where from Mexico to Latvia to the [...]
Redondo Beach Art & Jazz Festival – Free Los Angeles Events
It might be a little early to head out on that summer beach vacation, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad time to hit sunny Redondo Beach. If you’ll be in the Los Angeles area a couple weekends from now, head down to Redondo Beach for the Art & Jazz Festival 2009 at Redondo Beach [...]
Favorite Restaurants – Louis’ Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut
We’ve championed a fair few restaurants here on USA Travel Guide, from the very old to the charmingly unique, so it was only a matter of time before we held up the torch for the most American food of them all: the hamburger.*
Of course, a dish of this magnitude can’t have the leisure of a [...]
The Food & Wine Festival at National Harbor – June 6-7, 2009
