Rollin with Zach

OWN’s Rollin’ with Zach Reminds Us that It’s All About Having A Great Time

Tonight, Zach rolls in to Sin City and the City of Roses and opens our eyes to a few new experiences.  A visitor of both of these great cities, both have won my heart and taken my money, but Zach’s ability to let me see the “newness” in somewhere that I have been a few too many times reminds me that enjoying something is all about perspective and attitude.  Throughout Zach’s entire itinerary, that is the one thing that he never forgot to bring with him – an awesome attitude!  So, next time you are dragging your suitcase through the airport or dreading a trip that you’ve made hundreds of times, change your attitude and find 5 new things to do.  Open up your life to having a great time…and you WILL have a great time.  Just roll with it.   You’ll be glad you did!

Here are Zach’s top five great times for each city. Let’s roll!

Viva Las Vegas Countdown
5. Green Valley Ranch Resort and Spa – Living large in Vegas, Zach gets a special tour with his magic 3 words, ” I know Oprah.”  Wow…and it works!  I always knew Oprah was magical!  A private patio with your own private pool…yes, magical. 
4. Looking for Beginner’s Luck – Zach hits the casino for some “21” lessons and how to become a high roller with some high roller lessons. Zach reminds us from his lessons that Blackjack is a game of math and “you don’t go with your heart because your heart is a loser.”  Roulette asked for no skills…so, luck be with Zach!
3. Jubilee Showgirls – Seeing one of the last showgirl reviews in Vegas, Zach gets the inside, backstage look at what it takes to put on THAT kind of performance.  LOVED it…he’s so funny…
2. The Village Buffet – Time to eat!  Zach’s ready to try the 120 items on the menu…and rolls on in to one of the most famous buffets in Vegas.  With a little bit of everything from a little bit of everywhere, looks like you’ll want to wear your “adjustable” pants.  But if we know Zach, he’s looking for the sweets!
1.  Thrill Seeking with Indoor Skydiving –  Zach wants to feel like he’s flying…and he’s ready to take it on with some indoor skydiving!  Braver than most men I know, Zach is fearless! 

Portland Countdown
5. A Bike Tour in a Bike Capital – Water Front Park and the Columbia River are on the tour as Zach doesn’t roll…but pedals around town!  GOooooooooooooooo Zach!
4. Local Brew from the Crystal Ballroom – Taking a local brewery tour, Zach ventures into dangerous territory as he tries out beer…not normally on his “list.”  No drinking and driving Zach!
3. Let’s EAT at the Food Cart! – Zach tours the local food carts with the help of www.FoodCartsPortland.com founder, Brett Burmeister.  Now how fun it that!  Pull up a chair…or roll one up…and let’s eat! 
2. Coffee, Coffee, Coffee! – Coava Coffee is making Zach feel extra special with some extra special treatment from Coava co-owner, Matt Higgins.  Serve me up!  This is a MUST stop on my next visit to Portland.  Problem is…you may have a hard time getting me to leave.  I LOVE my coffee!
1. Rock Climbing on Mt. Hood – Zach’s adventurous spirit hooks him up with “Adventures without Limits” and Doug Knighton and Nolan Pavone.  Zach’s thinks he’s ready to climb some rocks but finds out…it’s not as easy as it looks.  But Zach’s spirit is MUCH BIGGER than any old mountain…it’s both amazing and inspiring.  Go climb a rock!  Make mine a little one please…
