Camp Yosemite Like a Gentleman at AutoCamp’s Newest Airstream-centric Outpost

The thing I love about NASCAR is the intensity, and the way the whole team relies on each other to be perfect down to the millisecond. I did not expect bull-riding to make that feel slow. After a visit to Winnebago and the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) Rattler Days event in Fort Worth, I have to say, bull riding is more exciting (and even more dangerous) than the high-speed races at NASCAR. I can’t thank Can-Am enough for inviting me out for a spectacular couple of days to experience it all for the very first time.

During my stay in the Fort Worth area, Can-Am connected me with the “World’s Greatest Cowboy” Dale Brisby. It’s partly because of him and his social media presence that bull riding has grown as much as it has, becoming its own sport apart from the rodeo scene. With shows like Yellowstone and Brisby’s Netflix special, How to Be a Cowboy gaining popularity, the call to experience Western culture has exploded. Here’s a first-timer’s impression of it all. 

UK-based performance brand Stubble & Co., known for its functional, stylish, and durable bags, just dropped a new hardshell luggage collection just in time for fall travel. As fall travel picks up and holiday trips fill the calendar, this new addition marks the brand’s first-ever hardshell collection and its expansion into the luggage category. Designed with the same understated aesthetic and focus on durability that runs through the rest of the brand, Hardshell is made for frequent travelers who want their suitcase to hold up trip after trip.

The Stubble & Co. collection is built from aerospace-grade polycarbonate and features Hinomoto multi-terrain wheels, repairable components, and a streamlined design that keeps things functional without feeling overly technical. The entire Pro range also features an aluminum ProFrame for travelers who want added structure and protection. The brand’s co-founders were first inspired during a trip to the Philippines and officially launched their first products in 2017, with a mission to create rugged, long-lasting bags for active lifestyles and travel.

Ocean Casino Resort is often seen as a summer destination, complete with the Atlantic City boardwalk experience. But if I learned one thing growing up in South Jersey, it’s that Atlantic City doesn’t just shut down after Labor Day. In fact, locals and tri-state residents know AC is sometimes even more enjoyable after the summer crowds die down and school is back in session. Plus, a little getaway to Atlantic City is one of the few things that make it possible to get through those super boring, cold fall and winter months.

Although I’ve stayed at Ocean Casino Resort several different times, I love that every trip is truly unique. With so many different dining and entertainment options all without leaving the resort, I’ve never repeated the same experience more than once. If you’re looking for a fall getaway, you don’t need beach weather to make a weekend trip worthwhile. In fact, some of Ocean’s best experiences have nothing to do with the beach. From big-name entertainment and destination-worthy dining to spa treatments and indoor activities, there’s plenty to build an entire off-season weekend around. Here are some of my favorite on-site things to add to your next getaway.
