January and February 2024: Queenstown, Nashville, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Key West, and 2 trips to Alabama
January 2024 started in Queenstown, New Zealand, with an awesome New Year’s Eve celebration I’ll never forget, and on New Year’s Day, we toured glaciers by helicopter and had a picnic atop a mountain next to said helicopter, and it was awesome. A few days later, it was time to […]
December 2023: Australia + New Zealand
We concluded our best travel year ever with one of our best trips: Australia and New Zealand for 3 weeks! Here are December’s 31 seconds; I’ll supplement with more photos and info on the trip later on… And, here is all of 2023’s “one second every day” compilation video !
November 2023: Vegas, L.A., and Covid 3
November was rough…October’s travels meant lots of long days at the office in November, but I did get to see my first Formula One race (a few practice laps until a manhole cover took out a Ferrari) before my bride met me for a weekend in L.A. for the Darker […]
October 2023: Jekyll Island, Baha Mar, Dallas, and Halloween
For a dozen years, we’ve gone as a family to Saint Simons Island when I have my annual workers’ comp legal seminar (which is either on SSI or neighboring Jekyll), but this year, the children had too many conflicts at school or that weekend, so I went alone. Hopefully, we’ll […]
September 2023–hiking the Dolomites, my 4th Oktoberfest, + my 30-yr high school reunion
September made the long hours of August worth the toil. On Labor Day, we flew first class to Munich–the first time we’ve been able to fly east across the Atlantic and actually lie down + sleep. I loved Bolzano, Italy, the town that can’t decide if it’s Austrian or Italian, […]
August 2023 – driving Atlanta Motor Speedway and lots of less exciting Zooming
August was one of the hardest months I’ve ever had professionally, with more cases than I’ve ever handled and with less help than I’ve ever had (and less revenue to hire the needed help). That said, my sweet bride paid for me to drive on Atlanta Motor Speedway in the […]
July 2023: Alabama, South Carolina, and Tennessee
July started with camping out on our land by the Little Tallapoosa River in Alabama for the holiday weekend, including time on Lake Wedowee. A few days later, we picked up our son from camp and went out on Lake Lanier with friends before driving up to Nashville for a […]
June 2023 — Greece
We left Memorial Day weekend on a direct flight to Athens. We attended an AirBnB “experience” during which a man in a toga taught us that the penalty for adultery in ancient Greece was “radishes in the ass.” We learned more than that about the ancient Greeks, but that’s what […]
May 2023 – New Orleans, Nashville, and Greece
I took my 30th trip to New Orleans in May for a few days of legal conference. My son got a “cadet of the year” award via his Civil Air Patrol squadron that the local VFW presented him, and I liked the guys who presented it so much that I […]
