Saw this post about How to Pack a Bag for Travel over at Art of Manliness and thought it was a very appropriate before your next mancation.

While this might seem like an obvious topic to many, the sad reality is (according to my wife, who is now being validated by AoM!) that us guys just don't know how to pack well - especially the finer points like how to fold dress shirts so they don't come out of the bag all creased.

Saw this interesting story over at Puget Sound Business Journal that Westin Hotels are now beginning to feature Wii Fitness in their hotel rooms in New York City and Bellevue Washington.

While it isn't quite as cool as having a full game setup like the Hotel Sax in Chicago, it is nice to see that us video gameaholics can still have fun on the road :)

Fast cars are nice, family cars are good, but a nice beefy luxury SUV just makes a road trip fantastic! For our trip to Cleveland last month we were lucky to have an opportunity to drive the 2010 Buick Enclave.

If you haven't seen a Buick recently, you should really go check one out. This isn't the same General Motors interior that you know and love(?). Maybe its just me, but my perception of GM cars over the past 10 years has been that they are cheap, moderatly styled, and "nice" but not really where I would drop $60,000 on a new car.

Cleveland is a great town - yes, it is also the "mistake on the lake" and the place where a river caught fire years ago. Don't let that deter you though, this town really has a TON of stuff for an ultimate guys weekend or mancation. While my wife is from Cleveland and I drive by / through the area on a fairly regular basis, I really had no idea exactly how much cool stuff for guys this town has - and we touched only a small part of it during our tour hosted by Positively Cleveland.

Spring is mostly over and the summer heat isn't that far off, so you might be thinking about some fun summer activities where you can keep cool, while still having a great time outdoors. That's why I wanted to share some information about the Grand Teton Lodge Company, and let you know that they have some great ideas for outdoors mancations.
