Travel Tip<\/strong>:
\nA Global Entry pass<\/a> is a true bargain if you do any international travel. You don\u2019t need to wait in line for immigration at reentry to the US. But it also serves as validation for the TSA Pre-check short-cut for security screening at most major US airports. Much shorter lines. To get in the program requires an appointment to get fingerprinted and $100 every five years. Well worth it. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Edible<\/strong>:
\nBefore I take a flight, I toss a few Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt Kind bars<\/a> into my travel bag. The crunchy bars are gluten free and have just 5g of sugar. The perfect snack for plane or hotel room. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Destination<\/strong>:
\nIf you\u2019re in Northern California and have yet to visit Amador County<\/a>, I could not recommend it more. The county is steeped in Gold Rush history and offers 40+ wineries, romantic B&Bs and historical small towns, all within a short drive of one another. Side note: I was once the Lifestyles Editor for the county newspaper, which might make me a bit biased, but I also have enjoyed enough time there to know it makes for a magical getaway. \u2014 CL<\/p>\n

Readable<\/strong>:
\nThe Library of America publishes high-quality hardbound books with multiple novels per volume. I\u2019m reading Ross Macdonald: Three Novels of the Early 1960s<\/a>, which contains three excellent novels about fictional Los Angeles detective Lew Archer. These tightly-written page-turners have kept me up way past my bedtime. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Enjoyment<\/strong>:
\nI\u2019m more audio book than podcast listener, but On Being with Krista Tippett<\/a> is one of my favorite things ever. Her guests vary from artists, scientists and activists, and the conversation is always centered around the intangible aspects of life. It\u2019s philosophical without being pushy, and I\u2019m quickly working my way through the archives. \u2014 CL<\/p>\n

Follow<\/strong>:
\nThe best photographer blog and\/or photo magazine for both pros and newbies, and for all photographers in between, is on the web as PetaPixel<\/a>. Sure, they have the latest nerdy camera gossip, but they also have plenty of features about the million different ways people actually capture and use images. Every day I am amazed and informed. Add it to your RSS feed. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n
