We worked with award-winning writer Josh Sens and photographer David Collier to create a multilayered story package that begins here: It's a sun-kissed afternoon, and I'm cruising up the coast near Santa Cruz, Calif.—hands on the wheel, eyes on the road, ears ringing with feedback about my driving. My teenage daughter, Scarlett, is in the backseat, but she hasn't said a thing.

If that seems like exaggeration, consider this: Oakland is ideally located at the center of California’s $3 trillion state economy (an economy larger than that of the United Kingdom, France and India.) Oakland is also the geographic heart of the San Francisco Bay Area—the region recognized as the global capital of tech innovation, home to the nation’s highest GDP per capita, a magnet for the world’s smartest talent and a coveted place to live with unbeatable scenery, weather and cultural diversity.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://annemcsilver.journoportfolio.com/articles/uniquely-oakland/https://media.journoportfolio.com/users/59658/images/f2cb5e4e-192c-40e9-99b9-7d083b2a314c.pngTue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://media.journoportfolio.com/users/59658/images/f2cb5e4e-192c-40e9-99b9-7d083b2a314c.pnghttps://www.viamagazine.com/blog/100-years?ca=y/Via celebrates a century of travel inspiration, road trips, and outdoor adventures.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://www.viamagazine.com/blog/100-years?ca=y/https://www.viamagazine.com/outdoors/video-360-degree-view-saguaro-national-park?ca=yExperience sunset on the Hugh Norris Trail in Tucson's Saguaro National Park.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://www.viamagazine.com/outdoors/video-360-degree-view-saguaro-national-park?ca=yhttps://www.viamagazine.com/blog/video-adventure-3-saguaro-national-parkLocated just outside Tucson, Saguaro National Park is divided into two distinct districts with a common goal: to protect the saguaro, the largest cactus species in the world. These desert sentinels can live up to 200 years and grow up to 50 feet tall — and 1.8 million of them call the park home.

The 2018 wildfire season was the deadliest and most destructive wildfire season on record in California. The Park District is actively working every day to reduce the fuel load in regional parks and maintaining healthy forests by thinning excessive growth. While the Park District's efforts to reduce wildfire risk are extensive, it is the collective efforts of homeowners and neighbors that can have the greatest impact. Reduce fire fuels around your home and take other precautions to help prevent wildfires.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://www.ebparks.org/civica/press/display.asp?layout=11&Entry=509https://calstate.aaa.com/viaWhether it’s your first visit or just your first this month, now is the perfect time to explore and hit up local favorites.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://calstate.aaa.com/viahttps://www.viamagazine.com/?ca=yWhether it’s your first visit or just your first this month, now is the perfect time to explore and hit up local favorites.Tue, 30 Jul 2019 00:00:00 +0100https://www.viamagazine.com/?ca=yhttps://calstate.aaa.com/via/smart-guide/great-aaa-member-benefits-and-discountsLife is an adventure.
