Greetings!

With Labor Day weekend over, the change of season is just around the bend and in this week's Big Blend e-News, we've got some fabulous Fall events, celebrations, and travel destinations to check out! We also have stories and opinion pieces, radio shows and interviews, videos, and event news from our Creative Celebrations, Vacation Station, and Rants, Raves & Rock magazines.

 

We just returned from our latest Big Blend SPIRIT OF AMERICA TOUR stint that ran from Arizona up to Washington State, where we aired live radio shows and visited Sequoia National Park, Mount Rainier National Park, and their gateway communities. We also managed to do a quick visit to the Joshua Tree National Park and Mojave National Preserve area to plan our Fall return visit to the parks and destinations. Thank you to all who hosted us, helped us plan the trip, and our supporters who signed our Tour Pledge!

 

Join us for our upcoming Big Blend Radio Shows airing Sept. 7th, 10th and 12th - we've got an excellent line up of guests and topics of discussion!


Keep up with all our Big Blend Magazine news by following us on Twitter, Facebook and Youtube.

Have a wonderful weekend!
