Car Rental For $1 A Day? Now, That’s An Advantage!
Posted on July 10, 2008 - Filed Under Road Trippin', Travel | Leave a Comment
Working so many hours I find myself seeking more and more interesting vacation ideas. These days my most frequent problem isn’t paying for the vacation itself, but losing the time at work (working in social services provides zero traditional benefits like sick/vacation time). This, of course, means I need to fly to […]

Posted on July 9, 2008 - Filed Under Ride Reports, Travel | Leave a Comment
It’s been a rough year for amusement parks with a sluggish economy and ever-increasing gas prices. That’s why you can now get two-for-one admission tickets to most any theme park in America, but would be hard pressed to be paying full price at the gate. The prize for most innovative gate discount […]

Okay, Nightmare is too strong a word for it, but it makes for a much stronger title than “My Personal TSA Bad Experience”

I know, I know, I’ve been back four days and still haven’t posted very much about our vacation last week. The truth is I’ve been working at it, but processing dozens of videos and well over a thousand photos is taking much longer than I expected.
Everything’s been processed now and it’s just a matter […]
Wild Vacation Memories

I had a dream last night (perhaps I should say today since I slept all day) about my first visit to New York City. I was only 16 years old and went back to New York to visit the family of a school friend. It was a wild and crazy time - seeing […]
A Brief Vacation Report

Man, did I need that! Four days of not having to worry about anything or anyone was exactly what the doctor ordered. There was way too much happening on this trip to dump into a single post. But instead of making y’all wait until I have time to write and publish the […]
