It’s a Gift Holiday, for Whatever Your Valentine Might Enjoy
Here are some gift ideas for Valentine’s Day, which as we all know, is a holiday fraught with peril. Go forth, be creative, think outside of the small box of chocolates…how about some of these?
An Artist Created River Fun Phone Case
This phone case shows the Barton Creek River that has views of downtown Austin, Texas, with a painting by Dorothy Walker. This is sure to inspire anyone who has visited this very popular Texas swimming hole.
Daisies always brighten a room, regardless of the weather or mood. I picked the daisies in this painting while on a relaxing hike at the Torrey Pines Reserve in San Diego, CA.
Print Size: 9 x 11 inches. Printed on premium archival fine art paper for a high-quality print that prevents sun damage.
Map Mug: Color In the Places You’ve Been

visited places.

Commemorate that Special NYC Restaurant with these Drawings
“I’m a former New Yorker magazine editor turned artist (and I do all my own PR) and I have the perfect, feel-good gift for travel lovers who can’t make it to NYC right now–my signed, limited-edition prints that are now helping restaurant workers in their time of need.”
John Donohue offers his art to you.
“In 2017, I set out to draw every restaurant in New York City. Unsurprisingly, I’m not even close to done.”
I’ve sketched uptown and down, drawing classics like J.G.. Melon and getting to know all sorts of new-to-me spots by standing on the sidewalk, pen in hand. .
I sell signed, limited edition prints (9×12 for $95, 5×7 for $55) on my website All The Restaurants.
People have bought them to commemorate the site of a first date or engagement, a memorable trip to New York, or their favorite neighborhood joint.
Take Valentine’s Plunge off of these Cliffs in Ireland
Imagine descending 250m sea cliffs to arrive at outstandingly beautiful storm beaches in the most remote and atmospheric locations in Ireland.
Then you launch from the shore to cross the open ocean to land at the bases of towering monsters of immaculate rock. Then climb these towers of rock to arrive on pristine pinpoint summits far from anywhere in the real world./Standing on a pinpoint summit over 100m above the ocean, 500m from the nearest point of land and 20KM from the nearest main road can easily be described as a truly spiritual experience. Donegal Sea Stack climbing is the most adventurous commercially available activity in Ireland and we are the only people who provide this unique service. What we guarantee you is a day out you will never forget in places you never knew existed.
No previous climbing or kayaking experience required

How about Getting Naked at a Nude Resort for Valentine’s Day?
Fun-loving couples looking for more unique getaway travel experiences to celebrate this Valentine’s Weekend (or later in the year), one that they will cherish and remember forever, now have a “bucket list” option.
They can book themselves into a nudist resort and shed some of life’s stresses along with their clothes with a break from the ordinary (and Covid-era isolation) by calling the American Association for Nude Recreation at 1-800-TRY-NUDE or visiting www.aanr.com/aanr-clubs/ .
And there are added health benefits: sunlight on the body enhances brain health, hormonal health, sound sleep, and it also boosts serotonin to enhance mood.
For couples who have already enjoyed the skinny dip and Nakation experience together, think about purchasing a couple’s membership through AANR, providing discounts when visiting member resorts, clubs, and campgrounds, along with many other benefits. Membership is only $64.00 per person a year/$113 per couple.
While swimming and tennis are among the sports most often associated with nude recreation, many AANR clubs and resorts offer a variety of leisure activities to accommodate the interest of nudists young and old, active or passive.
Swimming pools and lakes are commonplace but visit a club and one is bound to find sports such as volleyball, golf, badminton, bocce ball, petanque, shuffleboard, and hiking/nature trails. Others also offer fishing, boating, cycling, basketball courts, croquet, table tennis, full-scale exercise rooms, and spas – what’s not to love about a massage in the nude.
