This has got to be one of the prettiest rest stop murals / decorations anywhere along the route so far. Hats off to @visitmo for a great welcome center and a chance to check out some great history and cool license plates. Route 66 really is a fun trip even if you are only driving through and are limited to how far off the road you can deviate from your itinerary. Can't wait to come back and visit Missouri more though ... I had no idea that there were caves you can drive/ride a jeep through. So cool. Plus they have great BBQ and my biscuits and gravey from breakfast this morning ... omg! #roadtrip #roadtrippers #missouri #visitmissouri #visitmo #travelmissouri #reststop #missourihistory #route66 #route66roadtrip

They do "spring storms" differently in Texas :) luckily this one stayed just off my left side as we continued heading east to visit with some friends today in Oklahoma City @roamingmyplanet but it sure looked gnarly for a guy used to "severe weather" in San Diego being a light drizzle! I love traveling across the US by car and this "Route 66" path is one of the best out there, though I wish I could spend more time on this trip but I am brining our wine collection up to the condo and it needs to stay temperature controlled so no chances to get out and take a walk or something to explore places along the road like Painted Desert etc. Bummer :( #springstorms #thunderstorm #roadtrip #roadtrips #roadtrippers #route66

How many of you guys overcooked your meat this weekend? I didn't! :)

#Sponsored #BraunBPM As you guys know, it's been a rough few weeks but Jim is doing a lot better. In life you can either learn lessons when you have challenges or risk having worse stuff happen in the future. For me, this is a learning opportunity to as a man I need to take better care of my health and that starts with lifestyle changes ... but it also means paying attention to things like blood pressure and heart beat. These two items from Braun are a great way to do that and the Braun ExactFit Upper Arm Blood Pressure monitor makes it easy to interpret your reading with a color coded readout based on the American Heart Association’s guidelines.

After two months in Ohio I'm seriously craving some good tacos. I'm told that @condadotacos is the best place in Toledo (Perrysburg) and while it's not "just like home" in San Diego, they offered some pretty imaginative creations, that tasted great, a very good list of tequilas and mezcal cocktails - including this one "Smoke Show" made with @ilegalmezcal @ghosttequila @anchoreyes, blood orange. Lime, agave, and a black salted rim. Their salsa sampler was pretty great too. I also dig that each of their locations features designs created by local artists to give that more authentic feel despite it being part of a fast growing chain with Columbus, Ohio roots. #condado #condadotacos #toledoohio #tacotuesdays #tacotuesday #taconight #tacos #tacos #mezcalmargarita #mezcalcocktails #mezcalcocktail

#ToroPartner I'm loving this 60V Max power system. Plenty of power for yard work but so much quieter, less messy, not petrol smells, and I don't have to worry about empty gas cans either! #torostripes #toroyard Toro

It's sorta weird exploring a town for the first time even though I've been visiting here for more than 20 years (Heather and I were married in Toledo, Ohio). In the time since then, we'd pretty much stayed in the same spots and hung around with family. While I didn't expect to EVER spend this much time here ... I'm actually glad I got the opportunity to explore the city more. Toledo is far from a "garden spot" but there are some great roads, beautiful bridges, a struggling but potentially great downtown entertainment center, museums, breweries, and distilleries. It's safe to say that there's more than enough here for a great guys getaway and I'm looking forward to more chances to explore the area! Where do you guys recommend we check out next? @toledocvb @toledospirits @gbsbrewing_co_toledo @earnestbeer @patronsaintsbrewery @nmgltoledo @mudhens @toledowalleye @thetoledozoo @jm_cruise_lines @hollywoodtoledo #visittoledo #visittoledoohio #toledoohio @ohiotheheartofitall #visitohio

Ways For Men To Stay Fit In Their 40s

Do you love pizza, local craft beer served in giant 18oz frozen schooners while watching trains go by as much as I do? If so, you'd love @silver_beach_pizza as much as I do! FYI yes ... those are squash, asparagus, and all sorts of other on our pizza (JJ Sunburst) that we did half and half with a Garlic Greek creation. And the beer is @watermarkbrewing IPA. #silverbeachpizza #stjoseph #stjosephmichigan #silverbeachmichigan #almostsummer #michigan #michigansgreatsouthwest #michigrammers @stjoetoday @puremichigan #puremichigan
