This past month we had a wonderful time visiting Yerington in western Nevada, as part of our Big Blend Spirit of America Tour, our quest to visit and cover 407 National Park units and their gateway communities. Located just off the Pony Express National Historic Trail and part of the California National Historic Trail, Yerington is a fun and fascinating place to visit.
From sipping champagne in France to exploring Norfolk, England and meditating in Hawaii, this month’s Big Blend Radio & TV Magazine is packed with summer travel destination stories and event news covering various regions of California, Arizona and Nevada. This issue also features articles, videos and expert interviews that focus on central Louisiana plantations, the history of families portrayed in art, new books and music, the stage and screen of Yosemite’s Gold Country, the Annual San Diego Scottish Highland Games & Gathering of Clans, cooking and recipes, travel tips and eco-tourism, how to turn writing into book action, parenting advice, and the laws discerning employees from independent contractors.
