Restaurant Roundup: Hinesville and Savannah, GA

The big thrill of visiting somewhere else is indulging in the local cuisine. The hard part is finding out what's out there, especially in a smaller town. Yes, the hotel staff are a valuable resource (as are clients if you're on business), but why keep all of that good information to myself? Now that my […]

Back to Savannah

I'm back on the road again, this time on a business trip to Hinesville, GA, just outside of Savannah. There's no cohesive entry here (I wouldn't want to bore you to death with a noodle post), so I just have some random thoughts.

Travel Log, Tampa FL: Day 1

Or "Flying the Unfriendly Skies." Today's trip to Tampa started off really badly. In fact, I'd say it was one of the most annoying flying days I've ever had, topping the 6-hour wait in an employee lounge at Ontario's airport when I was 10. (Keep in mind that 15 years ago, Ontario's airport was […]

Travel Log, Sacramento CA: Day 3

And the conclusion to our thrilling four-part saga…
Okay, not really, but I needed an opener. We slept in pretty good Sunday morning (as well as we could with Chloe being a crack-head), ate a big yummy breakfast, then spent the balance of the morning kicking back and doing the "wasting time until we have to […]

Travel Log, Sacramento CA: Day 2

The best laid plans almost went awry today. Repeatedly. Today's plan was to make an 8:30AM session at the new Sacramento temple, meet Vanessa and The Other Shauna in Placerville for Z'pie, and then head over to the Swift's reception at 7PM.

Travel Log, Sacramento CA: Day 1

Yes, it's technically Day 2, but I don't want to do the Day 2 post when it's not even over yet.
True to form, we planned most of our day yesterday around food. Since we had all gotten up in the morning contrary to our plans, we decided to go hit up The Nook for some […]

Travel Log, Sacramento CA: Day 0

Yes, we're in Sacramento now. Thanks to Shauna getting off work early, we left a few hours earlier than originally planned and made it to Cameron Park before 2AM local time. That puts us at right around 10 hours, not bad considering we couldn't do 85 the whole way.
Why Day 0, you might ask? Because […]

We shouldn’t have to leave town for good eats.

When we travel out of town, one of the most exciting things for us is eating really good food from really good restaurants. Our last trip to Vegas was entirely centered around what restaurants we planned to eat at. Our upcoming trip to Sacramento (this weekend, kiddies) already has us booking up lunches and dinners […]

This city don’t love me no more.

Shauna and I took a trip down to Vegas this past weekend to celebrate both her birthday and my mom's birthday. (For those that don't know, my mom and dad both live in Vegas.) I hadn't been there since probably June when I handed in the keys for my job there after finding my replacement […]

Travel Log, Camden SC: Day 4

I got a really good night's sleep last night. I owe it all to going to bed at a reasonable hour and sleeping in until 9:30AM. I took my time getting ready, checked out in time, and then hit up the Waffle House across the street for a real breakfast. By real, I mean eggs, […]
