Travel Photos

If I get around to taking and uploading photos, you might even get two posts in one day!  Like today!

Here is a moose we ran into on our way home...didn't even make it from the airport before we found him chillin' on the roadside.

Also, a photo of the pretty mountains from the plane.

Trying to book the rest of my trip...so far, we think I'm heading to Hawaii on March 15.  There is one seat, on one flight, for $400 one way (blech!), but otherwise, I can't even get there in the month of March (stupid spring break).  So I think we'll take it.

As far as Hawaii to Colorado, that's still TBD...maybe around the 22nd?  24th?  Not sure.  More details to come...

February 28: The Introduction

If you're reading this, it means I am en route (or already there, if you ignored my email for several hours) to Alaska for an indeterminate amount of time.  Sad!  But fear not, for I've devised a plan to keep you enjoying my company even while I'm gone.

First, I went and found one of those calendars that lists every random holiday that exists, and decided that I would help you celebrate each of those days.  Now, March doesn't have any super cool ones like "Talk Like a Pirate Day", but there are some good ones for sure.

What this means is that I'm giving you a blog post a day for the next month.  And hopefully I won't be gone any longer than that because that's as far as I managed to plan when I thought of this idea sometime Sunday afternoon.

Sometimes these blog posts will have photos.  Maybe even some flattering photos.

Sometimes they will have links.  Maybe they will be good links and maybe they will not.  The quality will probably be inversely related to the amount of time I have, oddly enough.  Just a prediction.

Sometimes they will even have clues that direct you to presents that I've hidden around the house.  Yes, that's right!  Presents!  As in multiple presents!  But first you'll have to solve my incredibly difficult clues.

Hopefully this helps ease the pain of my absence, which I know is making you all feel dead inside.  Don't worry, I'll be back soon enough.  I love you all very much and miss you terribly...look here for your first real March Holiday Madness message tomorrow!
