The Spectacular Adventure of Tomorrowland 2022 (Part One)

  By

Hello and happy Friday once again!! Today is part one of the spectacular trip around Tomorrowland 2022 (Weekend 2). Let’s get right to it, shall we? Late in 2019, I said screw it….2020 is the year of the Professor’s 40th, let’s do Tomorrowland. If you’ve read the posts here about EDC Las Vegas, Tomorrowland is Europe’s answer to EDC. I was so excited. The Professor, the Aging Raver, was about to go International. If you’ve… Read the entire post here!

Epic Teton Adventure of 2022 (or, “That Time I *ALMOST* Made it to Yellowstone”)

  By

As I’ve mentioned previously, after the debacle of 2020 (in which I grew a beard while in the military, swam with otters, and basically just played dress-up for several months) I’m making the most of my available time off. Rather than a single huge road trip around the country for EDC Las Vegas, 2022 has seen a different philosophy–more trips, to more places, for shorter periods. Early June was therefore set aside as a week… Read the entire post here!

Rave Time Once Again! EDC Vegas 2022

  By

I know I promised this a while ago, but y’all my June and July have been absolutely chock full of activities (many of which you’ll also get to read about–some of them not so much). Sorry I’m so late in getting this to you….let’s go back to Vegas! I won’t beat around the bush, it was a much shorter trip than the usual, as travel and leave priorities have shifted in the Professor’s domain. So… Read the entire post here!

Heroic Conclusion of Epic Italian Grand Tour: Carnival in Venice

  By

Yes friends, it’s time for the conclusion of this bucket-list grade road trip up Italy. But fear not, for we have another (albeit nowhere near as involved) RaveHajj coming next month, and other adventures yet this year. For now, pour a glass of your favorite beverage and join me on this final installment. We left the action on the way out of Firenze, having to decide between the “scenic” and “direct” routes through Tuscany. Granted,… Read the entire post here!

Epic Grand Tour of Italia Part 4, Firenze

  By

Rome was, of course, truly stunning. However, three hours after leaving Rome, the Jeep Renegade arrived in Florence. Home to the Medici, Machiavelli, Leonardo Da Vinci, Dante, Michelangelo, Botticelli, Brunelleschi, Guccio Gucci, and birthplace of what is considered the modern Italian language itself…it is beyond belief. Rich in history, culture, art, and of course….FOOD (and maybe drink). Astute observers will recognize that I am, in fact, a fan of the Assassin’s Creed series of video… Read the entire post here!

Epic Italian Grand Tour (Road Trip) Part 3 – Rome

  By

Welcome back! It’s time for the third installment of this amazing series. Are you ready? Let’s head to Rome! After packing up from the overnight at Il San Cristoforo (one night is NOT enough, next year there’s already additional time being spent in the Naples area), it was onward and upward. The journey to Rome was uneventful, but the views were absolutely stunning. Sadly since I was driving and the rozzers were plentiful along the… Read the entire post here!

Epic Italian Road Trip 2022 Part 2 – Pompeii

  By

Hello everyone and happy Friday! Being a Friday, that means two things are certain. First: Additionally, being that it’s Friday, it’s time for another chapter of the Professor’s amazing Italian road trip/Grand Tour. Today, we’re hitting Naples, but unfortunately due to time constraints only one night could be spent there. So we’re really covering the 6+ hours spent at Pompeii (and trust me you could spend three days exploring that incredible location) and the killer… Read the entire post here!

I’M BACK!! Epic Italian Road Trip 2022, Part 1: Palermo

  By

Well hello lovelies!! It’s been a hell of a couple years. Hope you and yours all weathered everything okay. It’s been too long. TOO. DAMN. LONG. But the good news is, the Professor is back and having a grand old time….and took a ton of photos to share it all with his favorite ragazzi. HOWEVER, and there *IS* a “however” to this….it absolutely HAS be in several parts, because it was one *HELL* of an… Read the entire post here!
