Fourth of July

Happy Fourth of July to all! What a great holiday and even nicer when it falls near a weekend enabling a long weekend! Its been a whirlwind time lately as I was on business travel last Thur and Fri and then again Mon, Tue and Wed of this week. So, its been a while since […]

Back From Trip

If you follow me on twitter, then you know I was recently on a business trip to the Cleveland area. Most of my trips are pretty uneventful, which is good. This one was a bit different though all ended well. The trip started fine, except for the 6:00 am departure on Thursday. No problems with […]

Travel Weary

Whew, what a couple of weeks. Sorry for the lack of posts recently, but I have been on travel for my company and what a couple of weeks it was. The journeys started with a business trip to Hawaii a couple of weekends ago. Yeah, I know, rough place to go on business. It is […]

My Birthday

Well, tomorrow is my birthday. Turning the big 45. I probably shouldn’t mention it, but hey, you are only as old as you think you are. Luckily, tomorrow is one of our off Fridays at work, so I get to stay home, relax and spend some quality time on the computer. Okay, so I am […]

Travel and More Travel

Sorry for the absence, but the new job (within same company) has a bit more travel required. I just recently returned from a trip to Alabama and have another pending trip to Hawaii – yeah, that’s a rough one. Suzanne will be tagging along on that trip. Her parents are going to drive in from […]

Rough Business Trip

Yesterday, I returned from another business trip. This was an especially hard and difficult trip – NOT! My company sent me to Honolulu, Hawaii on this business trip. Woot! There was business to be conducted but I did have some time for enjoying Hawaii. We flew out on Tuesday and arrived in the evening. We […]

Road Warrior

Occasionally, I travel for work. Luckily, its not too often. However, over the next couple of months that’s going to get stretched a bit and I will be travel weary. No problem keeping my Gold (and potentially Platinum) status this year. It all starts around the end of this month with a trip to Tampa […]

My American Airlines Fun

Last week, I had to take a business trip to Dayton, OH. As usual, we were flying on American Airlines. Our flight left Tucson about 15 minutes prior to American grounding their entire fleet of MD-80s. We were informed of this action upon our arrival in Chicago O’Hare airport. There was a lot of groans […]

Business Trip To Germany

If you have been watching my Quick Thoughts updates to the right, then you know I was recently in Germany on a business trip. I really like trips to Germany, but they are still hard on one. This was a pretty quick trip except that we had a weekend stay involved. One of my colleagues […]
