Ace Swim Club | Palm Springs, CA

One final paragraph of advice: do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am – a reluctant enthusiast….a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it’s still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the precious stillness, the lovely, mysterious, and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive.

I’d be fine spending a few weeks at the Misool Eco Resort. They had me at “water cottages”.
I’ll be in Dulles tomorrow, and if they are open at 7:30a I’ll be getting a Five Guys Burger. Trust that.
Also noted in the article is news of LAX getting a Pinks. Only question I have is should I keep my mandatory In-N-Out order before boarding the same or remove one of the two burgers I normally get? I think the protein style cheeseburger will be replaced by a Pinks Hot Dog.
This has me wondering if there are any better resources for food options in airports (foursquare?)?
