Our initial focus for adding destinations to
PlacesToDiscover.com will be on the West Coast of the United States, but with a few national and international adventures tossed into the mix. Periodically, we'll include short reviews of restaurants, hotels, campgrounds and maybe even equipment that we as travelers find useful, such as GPS units for vehicles and digital cameras for  documenting your trips.

We're Always Looking for New Places to Discover
Our world is a dynamic place. At PlacesToDiscover.com we share with you, our fellow travelers, the places we visit each year as we research and write our new travel books and stories. Our travel writing focus, like most of our travel books, such as Best of California's Missions, Mansions and Museums, will be about the history and cultures of our many destinations. But we are also outdoor enthusiasts with many years of experience traveling through hundreds of our state and national parks--and working for a couple of decades in California's beautiful state parks.

We will be adding new destinations, when we aren't too busy traveling. And we travel quite a bit. Our most recent travel destinations include Costa Rica, Vietnam, New England, Southern California, including San Diego and Anza Borrego Desert, St. Louis, Phoenix, Las Vegas and Utah. We've also returned to Oregon and Washington our newest travel book--Best of Oregon and Washington's Mansions, Museums and More. And, we visited more than 100 California Sierra foothill wineries interviewing wine makers and winery owners for our book The Wine-Oh! Guide: California's Sierra Foothills.
