June 10: First Flight
Spontaneous Travel. Not typically 2 words that go together. Travel is something that most American’s treasure. They plot, they plan, they research, they save, they adapt, they change, they document and then, when everything appears to be perfect, they book their travel. 6 months in advance. There is absolutely […]
Foto Friday – June 10, 2011
Today’s photo comes from a nearby New York Vineyard, Clinton Cellars. This old barn is actually the tasting room for the winery and no longer functions as a barn, but proved to be very picturesque with the right photo touches. Unfortunately, the wine was nowhere near as good as the […]
June 9: The Long Road Home
As of January 28th, 2011, I walked away from corporate America. Since then, I have not driven to work, or home from work. I have sat behind a computer in a hotel, driven Juliet to and from work in the snow, driven cross country, everything, except for gone to an […]

June 5: Embrace Spontaneity
Too many times in life, we want, we need, a plan. I have even written about having a plan. We have been structured by corporate america to plan everything. Most of us live on a schedule, at least from 8am-5pm, Monday through Friday. This becomes the norm, so we begin […]
June 4: Hit the Road, Jack!
You heard me. Leave. Scram. Go. Get in your car, and go. Drive. Pick a destination. 200 miles away or 20 miles away. The distance does not matter. Hell, the final destination does not matter. The journey is the true destination of a road trip. Do not set a timeframe, […]
June 3: Say Hello to a Stranger
Yesterday, we talked about sharing a piece of yourself with others. Now how about sharing something with a total stranger? A Stranger is Just Someone You Haven’t Met Yet Most people are scared. Talk to a stranger?! For so many years now, a good chunk of American society has fallen […]
