[Week of February 22] After my very busy week in Las Vegas, I headed back east again to Flagstaff Arizona to spend the weekend catching up with myself. The few days there would be part rest and also a place to be in case my runny nose turned into something more debilitating. I didn’t want…

[Week of February 15] The drive to Las Vegas was nice. Good weather and it is literally a straight shot across the north of New Mexico and Arizona, through beautiful rolling desert terrain and periodic mountain ranges covered in snow. I love this part of the country. The views are amazing and it is not…

[Week of February 8] After Texas, my journey takes me into the western US. My long drive from Fort Worth to Albuquerque took me through the north Texas prairies, into the high plains of the Texas panhandle and over into the emerging high desert of New Mexico. I enjoyed seeing the geography and terrain change…

[Week of February 8] From Mississippi I drove across Louisiana and into Texas. I chose Fort Worth as a place to break up the drive and spend a short few days catching up and work. I had a pleasant and sunny day for driving. I should also note that the prior week there had been…

[Week of February 1] I’m excited to get on the road for the adventure of driving cross-country and in the new car. There are many stops planned and I look forward to seeing new places and revisiting old ones too. I’m also excited to start making my way back west. I will spend the rest…

[Week of January 18 and 25] I hit the road to eagerly get out of Orlando. There are many things about Orlando that people enjoy and it has become the home to over 2.5 million people. And… it’s not for me. From the heat, to the tourism, to the fact that every single freeway in…

[Week of January 11 and 18] Hold on to your seats!!! While this was supposed to be a fun trip, conference and meetup with some of my British friends, it went a very different direction!!! It’s probably a good thing that I waited a month to write about this, because now I can be more…

[Second weekend of January, 2026] I stayed in Atlanta until after the New Year’s holiday, which had me leaving on the second weekend of the month. After heartfelt goodbyes to Heidi and Bella, it was back on the road again, with a busy schedule of destinations and a LOT of movement. And… the new year…

[Weekend December 19, 2025] While staying in Atlanta, I took an opportunity to get out of Heidi’s hair for a weekend. Road trip for me, having the house to herself for a few days for her. (She didn’t ask, I offered.) Many years ago, I worked for a company based on Chattanooga, Tennessee, which is…

[November & December, 2025] We are sliding into the final stretch of the year: the holidays! I’ve come to care less about these times than I once did. However, when I’m visiting friends who DO celebrate, I enjoy spending time with them and sharing in their enjoyment. The rest of the year is in Atlanta,…
