What's a mere $100,000 compared to a treasure trove well over $1 million? Remember when Canadian Club hid cases of whisky and consumers competed to win $100,000.?

Forget that. Forrest Fenn, a legendary 80-year-old Santa Fe art dealer...

Bluesmaster John Mayall jauntily prances onto the stage of NYC's B.B. King Blues Club needing no introduction. Looking half his 80 years, white ponytail swinging behind him, this British blues singer/guitarist /keyboard...

The tram ride from 59th Street and Second Avenue to Roosevelt Island and the newly-opened Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Park, a project which has been in the works for forty years, takes a little over three minutes.

Roosevelt Island, formerly called Blackwell's Island, was...

Last night, 20,000 of us in the audience sat mesmerized, collectively holding our breath as Leonard Cohen, performing his Old Ideas World Tour 2012, sang "Bird on the Wire" at Madison Square Garden. Except for Cohen's low...

Everyone had been to Niagara Falls except for me -- I hate crowds and I don't like the idea of jockeying for position with camera-toting tourists. But, when I watched Nik Wallenda walk above the roiling Falls on TV last spring, I was reminded of the mystique and legends surrounding...

Whenever I want to recharge my batteries, I head to Toronto, just an hour from NYC and easy to get to (planes fly there every hour). I've already been three times this year and haven't seen half of what this vibrant city has to offer. There's great food, art and...

The full palette of brilliant colored leaves flies by as I pedal past Virginia creepers, birch, larch and maple trees in Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Highlands National Park on the Cabot Trail. This 186-mile-long coastal route in Canada is considered one of the world's most beautiful landscapes. Each day we...

His black T-shirt covered by a white bib apron, 72-year-old Tommy Bullock sets down plates of pan fried chicken, brisket, chopped pork and apple wood-and-hickory-smoked spare ribs. A waitress follows with bowls of candied yams, okra, butter beans, Brunswick stew and barbeque slaw. I look across at my friend Sam,...

The Brooklyn Navy Yard's security guard waves us through and we pedal our bikes behind Felipe Lavelle, creator of Get Up and Ride Bike Tours, Brooklyn's new bike tour company. Passionate about both cycling and his neighborhood, Felipe is leading six of us on a 12-mile bike tour...

I am looking out the window at the velvety green hills in southwest Wales, driving with my Welsh guide, Dai on the way to Pembrokeshire to go "Coasteering," an adventure that includes swimming, diving, jumping, climbing, scrambling and rock hopping along the ocean. I sneeze. "Bless you," says Dai and...

If you haven't had enough Olympics, head to Wales' smallest town, Llanwrtyd Wells, which will host the inaugural World Alternative Games August 17 - September 2. Some of the wackier tournaments include Worm Charming Chariot Racing, Bathtubbing Championship, Wife Carrying, Bog Snorkeling and the Man vs Horse Marathon.

Plucky...

I am walking towards the 1,168-foot CN Tower in Toronto on my way to do the Edge Walk a hands-free circumnavigation along the ledge of Canada's highest building, 116 stories above the city.

This is the scariest thing I have ever agreed to do, and believe me, I've...

I bounce along the rocky track running under Damaraland's cerulean sky with my guide, Raymond, but we don't look up. We scan the space ahead of us bulky shapes. This area is home to one of Africa's last populations of Black Rhinoceros.

My fascination with rhinos goes back to high...

I feel a tug on my line.

"It's a brown!" says Darin Schildknect, the fishing guide whom I've hired on Lake Taneycomo, which runs through the heart of Branson, Missouri. "Reel it in."

Too late. It's gone.

"What did I do wrong?" I ask him.

"You have...

On February 20, 1962, John Glenn's spacecraft landed in the Atlantic Ocean near the Turks and Caicos. Glenn liked the sleepy islands so much that he returned to spear fish and scuba dive. He returned for the same reason I decided to go, the vibrant life in the water.

"Make a pizza," says Bobbi, skiing backwards and holding onto my ski poles. I push my legs out so my skis are in a wedge. "Now French fries," she orders. I close my skis so they're parallel.

This is ridiculous. Maybe this is how you teach kids to ski,...

During a recent winter wildlife safari to Grand Teton and Yellowstone I saw bison galloping across a path directly in front of me, elk, big horned sheep, bald eagles, coyotes and a fox. I didn't have enough time to get to Lamar Valley, so much to my chagrin,...

He's at it again. The shameless stud who has fathered 25 since 1995 is about to mate with his newest gal pal, Xena. This male is so shameless you can find him in flagrante delicto on the Fifth Avenue apartment terraces above Central Park. This is Pale Male, New York...
