Day -2 – St. Louis

2/17/2010 – 4:13 pm

Is there some unwritten, or possibly written, rule that says that you have to start documenting your trip on the first day of the trip? Well if there is, I say that is a stupid rule. In fact, I claim that my trip starts now, two days before it actually does, on day -2. So [...]

Merry Boxing Day

12/26/2009 – 6:45 pm

I hope that everyone out there had a lovely Christmas. I certainly did. I got lots of lovely presents, and spent the whole day hanging out with my family and eating way too much food. So that seems like a pretty good day. This year, as opposed to previous years, I am writing a New [...]

I’m Silly

4/7/2009 – 9:45 am

I planned my next trip to California, this time for a week in July. Nothing silly about that, you say. Ahh, but if you remember, I’m the guy who likes to plan his trips based around the interestingness of the airplane, not the schedule or price or anything like that. Well this time I got [...]

California

3/3/2009 – 11:17 am

I’m leaving Friday to visit California again. I’m really excited, but I’m not really sure what I’m going to do. Last time I was out there, I’m pretty sure that I did everything there is to do. We went to the computer history museum. We went to the airplane museum. We ate Indian food. So [...]

How Was The Train?

2/25/2009 – 9:21 am

Well it turns out that the train was pretty good. Most importantly, I didn’t get sick. I did take a bunch of Dramamine, and had I not done that I probably would have gotten sick, because you rock back and forth quite a bit. So I’ve decided to put together a list of the pros [...]

Train

2/3/2009 – 4:03 pm

Kelly and I are going to Chicago later this month, and instead of driving, like we have the last 2 times, and instead of flying, we are going to take the train. I’m very excited, but a little nervous. I was thinking, and remembered that I have taken a real train trip before. It was [...]

Trip Report

11/24/2008 – 11:38 am

I know that I’ve been back for a week, but I’m finally going to get around to some highlights of the trip. -The weather was amazing. I think that it was 75 and sunny every day that I was there. I can imagine how it might get old to have weather like that every day, [...]

Out of Town

11/13/2008 – 2:22 pm

I’m leaving tonight, actually in a couple of hours, to go see Phil and Helen. I think that I’m the first in the family to do this, so it is a pretty big deal, and I’m really excited. It has been almost 3 months since they went away, but it just seems like 2 days. [...]
