I loved re-watching one of my longtime movie favorites, “Swingers.” I’ve only visited Los Angeles once (discounting a few extended visits to LAX) but this movie always makes me want to go back and get to know it better:

Nicola Twilley’s post in The Atlantic on how to make a scratch and sniff map. I was fascinated to learn that there’s a person billed as the world’s pre-eminent olfactory cartographer.

I loved the brand-new Boy Scout Base Camp at historic Fort Snelling, overlooking the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers. The Scouts turned a derelict 1907 U.S. Army cavalry drill hall into a learning center for the community, with rock-climbing walls, ropes courses, even a replica Space Shuttle command center.
