The Garden of the Gods fits its name to a ‘T’. When you see the shear red rock cliffs pointing towards the heavens, you imagine mythical Gods using this area as a playground. We here at “You, Me and The Dock” encourage our readers to send us photos of their vacations. As a travel...

Nobska Lighthouse and Maritime Museum
The Nobska Lighthouse and Maritime Museum provides quite a bit of nautical history about the area. Unfortunately the Maritime Museum was closed for renovations. However, the lighthouse kept things interesting. My name is Anthony. For those who don’t know me, I am a lighthouse fanatic. I have visited many destinations that have centuries old...
Na Pali Coast Boat Tour
The Na Pali Coast Boat Tour wasn’t an adventure where you take expensive camera and video equipment with you. Blue Ocean Tours made it very clear that this was going to be a rough ride. With that said, this entire adventure was photographed and filmed via cell phones. When our captain stopped to give...
The Kalalau Trail
The Kalalau Trail on the island of Kauai offers some of the most spectacular views of the North Shore and the Na Pali Coast. However, with beauty comes risk. According to Backpacker Magazine, the Kalalau Trail ranks high on the “Top 10 Most Dangerous Hikes in the United States”. My name is Anthony. I...

The peninsula was purchased from the Sugar Plantation Company for one dollar in 1909. My name is Anthony and for the many of you who know me, seeking out lighthouses in new destinations...
The Town of Hanalei with its Ancestral Graveyard and Ha’ena’s Dry Caves
The town of Hanalei has approximately 300 full time residents. Its business district stretches along three city blocks which includes restaurants, shops and a small park. With Kauai’s 2-lane Kuhio Highway running through it, the traffic can get quite busy during the day. My name is Anthony. I will be your guide through this...
Kauai’s North Shore
Kauai’s North Shore extends from Ka’ilio to Mokolea. It is one of the most breathtaking coastlines I have ever seen. Watching the crystal clear – aqua blue – South Pacific water crash against the volcanic cliffs is absolutely amazing. There’s nothing like it anywhere in the lower 48! My name is Anthony. I will...
The Ft Myers Beach Library Sandcastles
The Ft Myers Beach Library Sandcastles will be quite the exhibit. Not only can you check out books, but enjoy many unique displays as well. When stepping off the elevator on the 3rd floor, to the left is a corner filled with one of the island’s greatest assets and that is its sand. The...
Thank You For Supporting Us This Last Year!
It has been a very fortunate year for “You, Me and The dock”. Even though 2020 kept us stateside, we still managed to do quite a bit of traveling. From Ohio’s Amish Wine Country to Rhode Island’s Narragansett Bay and along much of New England’s beautiful Atlantic coastline, we brought it to you in living...
