Highland House Cafe Pizza

The pizza is just one of those foods that no matter what, it always sounds good. The ability to easily swap toppings, cheese and sauce, makes it one of the most versatile foods ever made. The history of this ingenious food is irrelevant. You see, that is the problem with all of those soups, and noodle dishes. No swappable toppings! It's 2014! All toppings should be swappable by now! If you are a vegetarian, carnivore, or you are just more into fungus (mushrooms) there is a pizza for you! What I’m most concerned with here is the textures, smells (sorry, no smell-o-vision yet) and taste (also, nothing I can do for you).

The Adventure of GoPro

By the end of this article you will know why the Hoover Dam, the West Coast Drought and the Go Pro Hero 3 cross paths. If you just care about the tech skip to the *


On a trip to the west coast my wife and I explored the Grand Canyon and the Hoover Dam. You MUST see the Grand Canyon to really experience how vast and incredibly large it is. You know that image you have of the Grand Canyon in your mind? Quadruple it, yeah, that is about the right size. Anyway, we went to the Grand Canyon and took some great pictures, learned some interesting facts. Next we went to the Hoover Dam, you could clearly see the effects of west coast drought. See that white area on the mountain, that is the loss of water… standing and looking down over the edge of the Hoover Dam you will gladly admit the drop is a bit too far to fall.
