      It's an eye-catching spot, a restaurant on the site of a former radiator shop that has artfully re-purposed the junk left by the previous owners, resulting in a chic, unique and colorful hangout for ...

      One of North Dakota's more surprising claims to fame is the fact that it is home to The World's Second Tallest Structure. Indeed, until Dubai's Burj Khalifa was completed in 2008, the KVLY-TV mast actually held the Number One spot. ...

      This aircraft museum has most of the warbirds used in WWII, including fighters, bombers and troop/cargo carriers. Jack Erickson started collecting in 1983 and has a huge collection. Most of the aircraft are in mint condition and most are still airworthy. Sometimes you can even see one flying from the Madras Airport adjacent to the Erickson Collection. ...

      Having enjoyed Chris Strodder’s earlier book, The Disneyland Encyclopedia, I looked forward to seeing The Disneyland Book of Lists, his new compendium of Disney lore, trivia, history, and insider info. To further test this new book’s depth, I enlisted the aid of a friend. Manny Mendoza has been a Disneyland aficionado for more than four decades. The holder of an annual passport that he never allows to expire, he visits the Magic Kingdom at least four times a month. He’s a walking reference book of Disney trivia and insider info. ...

      The Bird Cage Theatre, one of the few original buildings in Tombstone, opened as a music hall, bar, casino and bordello in 1881 and operated 24 hours a day until the doors closed in 1889 (during which time, it is reputed, one continuous 8 year poker game took place). It then remained boarded up until 1934, when it was reopened as a ...

      The museum is just about all that remains of the original Owens-Corning Glass Factory in Corning, New York. All but a few commercial products are now made in other parts of the world. The museum houses a fabulous collection of rare glass artifacts, a modern art/glass gallery, and several demonstration areas where visitors can watch glass being blown, heated and worked into practical or artistic shapes. There is even a DIY area where you can make your own glass pieces. ...

      Maid of the Mist is a boat ride of a lifetime. It has been in continuous operation since 1846. Boats leave from both the Canadian and American sides of Niagara Gorge and power up to within a few hundred yards of the Horseshoe Falls. The trip takes 30 minutes, and is wet and wild for everyone. ...

      In the heart of the town of Montour Falls is a very scenic waterfall, Shequaga Falls, which translates to "Tumbling Waters" in a local Native American language. It can be difficult to see the cascade driving on the main street, so drive a few blocks west and keep watching the cliff until you see ...
