How Much Money Do You Need? – April's Perspective
https://aprilesutton.wordpress.com/2015/04/15/how-much-money-do-you-need
Looking at news and our lives. How Much Money Do You Need? They have a lot of strange ideas in Seattle, Washington. Dan Price, founder of Gravity Payments, promises to raise the minimum wage of all his employees to $70,000. He did this because he read an article on Money and Happiness. Many people may think they would do this if they had the money, but honestly, would we? I guess Price feels very secure, and I would like to thank him for sharing. Maybe he will get others to think about just how much ...

Theme Park Fun | funstuffreport
https://funstuffreport.wordpress.com/2016/07/19/theme-park-fun
July 19, 2016. People often ask me why I like theme parks so much. What is it, they imply, that motivates a middle-aged, professional woman to spend her leisure time in an artificial environment designed primarily for children? I can answer the question in two words: pure joy. A day at a theme park is an adventure unto itself. Who will I meet? What will I see? What will I ride? Where will I eat? I grew up on the East Coast. My childhood park was a small, old-time amusement park at Cottman Avenue and ...

Monthly Archives: June 2016. The Joys of Solo Travel. June 15, 2016. Many people can’t fathom the idea of traveling solo, especially to a foreign destination. For me, it is a routine part of my life. I am often at my happiest when venturing off into the unknown to explore, discover, and experience the wonders a new destination or culture has to offer. My latest trip has taken me to Shanghai. I was here once before in 2005 with a tour group, under the watch of a tour leader who never let us out of her...

All posts by Andi Stein. Strolling Through San Francisco. July 28, 2016. Sometimes it’s worthwhile to take stock of your past to get some perspective on your present. I recently had a chance to do that when I visited the San Francisco Bay Area and immersed myself in what I used to think of as my other life but what I now realize is really my old life. Game, recalling favorite neighborhood haunts along the way that have long since been replaced by new businesses over the years. Street and Solano Avenue in...

Enjoy a Ride – April's Perspective
https://aprilesutton.wordpress.com/2015/08/14/enjoy-a-ride
Looking at news and our lives. Remember the thrill of your first two wheeler? Remember the freedom as you pumped your legs faster and faster, and then glided to give your legs a rest and feel the wind against your face. You could meet with friends, and ride together, exploring everywhere. There were limitations. We had to stay away from traffic, which often meant staying on the sidewalk. Insightful, caring communication in an honest sometimes piquant manner, faithful to and protective of the truth. Motor...

Monthly Archives: May 2016. May 30, 2016. As most people know, I can never resist a good adventure, especially one that involves public transit. This weekend I had the opportunity to make my way from my neighborhood in Orange County to downtown Santa Monica just by riding the train. My first stop was Palisades Park, where I paused to look at the plaque denoting the end of Route 66 near the intersection of Ocean Avenue and Santa Monica Boulevard. In its heyday, Route 66 ran across seven states from Ch...
