The Lone Star State Will Soon Meet: THE LONE RANGER

For the first time ever (I’ve been saying that a lot lately, but anyhoo…), this lone ranger will soon be rangering it up in the grandest state of them all: TEXAS! I have been anticipating this trip literally since last August when I registered early to attend SXSW, which takes place every year in Austin,…

A Nor’ Easter of a Trip!

Tomorrow morning I rise bright eyed and bushy tailed (maybe) for a trip to three New England states: Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. One of the reasons why I take an extended trip around this time of year is because I get two holidays in close proximity to each other: Lincoln’s Birthday and President’s Day….

I’m getting antsy in my pantsy

It’s been 8 weeks since I traveled, and the restlessness from not having gone anywhere for that long is driving me bonkies. Even a day in Manhattan hasn’t been enough to satiate my wanderlust. I feel the road calling, and I must heed its call if I’m to maintain my sanity. I took a break…

Where to vacation in the midst of all this global warming?

All this global warming resulting in subzero temperatures and mountains of snow is making it a tad difficult to figure out where to go for my next trip. :-D I have a week off coming up in February, but I have no idea where to go for this one. North, South, East, West? Somebody help…

Going another way

Statue at Red Lion Inn

Finally wrapping up a whirlwind of a weekend before heading back home tomorrow. To recap, I traveled to the Berkshires to spend a night in Stockbridge at the Red Lion Inn, and then stayed at a roadside motel in Barrington for the last two nights and using that as a launchpad to return to Stockbridge…
