Unless you like to walk the streets of NY with freezing, wet toes, you shouldn't wear your Vans in the winter. Especially with all the traffic in NY, it gets from snow to gray slush very quickly. Put on a good pair of waterproof boots (it's worth the investment) and go walking in the cit…

I only spent four months in Rantoul, but I felt like I was doomed to a frozen hell. The wind chill was 75 degrees below zero on more than one occasion and the snow was in white-out conditions many times. One didn't leave the dorm room without donning a full ski mask, parka and long johns! It was ver…

If you don't like reading complaints about air travel, just move on to my next entry.
Nobody loves international travel more than me. Unfortunately, that usually requires a visit to an airport here in the U.S., and even worse, a flight on one of our domestic airlines. I started out with very low…

What can I say about Jacksonville...the people there weren't hillbillies, but they weren't the brightest light bulbs...at least those I had the chance to interact with. Who makes a right-hand turn onto a street from the left lane of a double-lane, one-way road? Arkansans do. That's just one example.…

...and pot was everywhere! The security police were the worst offenders, often confiscating it from those stopped by the drug dogs and then pocketing it for themselves.
I loved Dover! It was close to the ocean and beaches and not that far from Washington, D.C.
I worked with some civilians that…

Keene is a tiny little town in North-East Texas about 45 minutes from Dallas/Ft. Worth. The only thing located in Keene that is of any sugnificance is the private school there, Southwestern Adventist University, which is owned and operated by the Texas Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Keene is …

I remember living in Landisburg when I was pretty small. We lived in the country and had a small farm of a few pigs, a cow, some chickens, two mean geese, and a Shetland pony. Even at age 6, I had to walk a quarter of a mile to the bus stop for school. Back then, parents didn't worry so much and I d…

I love Seattle and really feel at home here. The weather is usually mild...not too hot and not too cold. The people are accepting of others and are more liberal than conservative (like me). There's a lot to do there, too. We have theater, symphonies, ballet, opera, concerts, and more. The scenery is…

After high school, I entered the Air Force and was sent to San Antonio to basic training. I wasn't used to the heat, especially in December, and I passed out for the very first time.
On pass, I explored the river walk and the Alamo (recommended).

When your pack leader says, "drink lots of water, we are only 5 miles from death valley and it can get really hot here" Try not to reply with, "I'm used to it I'm from Texas" and then pass out an hour later.

I am 36 and like most people my age we watched shows such as The Loveboat and fantasized about the ultimate vacation.
The weeks leading up to the cruise my niece and I exchanged multiple emails and spent hours planning the perfect trip. I researched the fleet of ships and was mesmerized by the a…

The town of Newport is very small...about 4,000 people. The high school combined 7th through 12th grades. We only had 88 people in my class.
Since there was nothing to do in town, I would often walk (or rid my bike) six miles to the state park to swim and hang out with friends during the summer. …

Prior to going on our three week summer trip, covering 5,000 miles of territory where I was unfamiliar, I purchased this software.
Full price was $35.99, but at that point there was a rebate offer and so my outlay was only $15.99 plus tax. Wasted money.
Everyone knows that maps are hard to keep…
