Introduction

Hey, all it's been awhile. First of all, let me say that it blows me away that people still remember my first travel-blog, Adventurer. When Grammie said one of her friends (somebody whose never even met me, much less someone who donated 1/4 of my DNA and is therefore obligated to fawn over me) asked if I was going to do another blog for the New Orleans trip and the New England trip, 'amazed' would be too mild a word. Suffice to say, it really warms my heart that you all still care.

Secondly, let me also say that since the fateful 2006 trip, I've written four novels and sundry shorter pieces. So my writing style has improved a lot (at least, I hope so). I can promise that this time around, my grammar will be correct, the boring digressions will be excised, and the sentence structure will be intelligible. It's a tall order, I know, but I'll rise to the occasion.

Last, I totally failed at making this blog in a timely fashion, so a lot of trip-related stuff has already happened. To catch up, I'm posting a bunch of anecdotes that occurred a while ago. The time-stamps on the entries will say it all happened within an hour, but really a lot of these things happened weeks ago. Just don't think about it too hard and you'll be fine.

Hope you like it!

  1. It took me forever and a day and a half to sign up to blog with you. I tried three times to post a picture with it but it either kept loading or timed out and sent me back to re-sign up. I like the part at the end about not thinking too hard. This is quite helpful for me in my old age and working so much. I have a very small window of opportunity in my day to think clearly. Please take lots of pictures of your adventure.BTW, I am very humbled and proud ( I love oxymorons) to be the first blogger on your site.Do I get a prize? ( that is the proud side of me speaking!)

  3. I am happy to be your Second blogger.... and I had to search very hard to find a decent picture (I have thousands of adorable daughters and nieces at various stages of their lives).
    I'm so glad you are having this opportunity to grow and learn about God... looking forward to reading more of your razor-sharp wit and revealing observations
