Who says local news doesn’t get around? Our tote has been traveling coast to coast โ€” by rail, road, and Redwood. Here’s where it’s been spotted lately:

California Dreaming

  • Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco โ€” Fog, wind, and views for days.
  • Marin County Line โ€” Crossing county lines and staying curious.
  • Half Moon Bay Brewing Co. โ€” Toasting to good journalism and better beer.
  • Stinson Beach โ€” Where the surf is chill and so is the vibe.
  • Mt. Tamalpais State Park โ€” Among the redwoods, our tote wandered off the page.
  • Historic Route 66 โ€” Cruising the mother road, old-school style.
  • Van Nuys Amtrak Station โ€” Making moves in SoCal.

Rail Tales & High Desert Trails

  • Sacramento, CA โ€” Statehouse energy meets train whistle nostalgia.
  • Reno, NV โ€” High desert grit and one helpful Amtrak crew.
  • Winnemucca, NV โ€” Still rolling through cowboy country.
  • Green River, UT โ€” Sunrise through the dust. Utah’s got character.
  • Grand Junction, CO โ€” Spotted at the modern station and the historic depot.

Colorado Calling

  • Union Station, Denver โ€” Big city class with old-world rail charm.
  • Golden, CO โ€” โ€œWhere the West Livesโ€โ€ฆ and the Post rides in style.
