Sorry that I didn’t post this one over the weekend… I was buried in potatoes. I had the arduous chore of making potato salad for my family’s Easter dinner. That meant chopping 10 POUNDS of ‘taters, roasting them in the oven, and then actually making the salad.
At any rate, here is my final [...]

Kennebunkport, ME
The next leg of my trip took me to Kennebunkport, a very quaint little historic coastal town, settled more than 350 years ago, that is home to some of the most beautiful seaside homes I’ve ever seen. It is also the location of President George Bush Sr.’s vacation home, called Walkers Point. Another [...]

Ogunquit, ME
For my first stop along the Maine coast, I stayed in Ogunquit, a beautiful little coastal town with one of the state’s few sandy beaches (most are rocky). Had a delightful stay at the Puffin Inn for two nights in my little attic hideaway room that was oh-so-cute and had the most charming [...]

Lighthouses!
Ok, I’m really sleepy now, so this is going to be quick… here are a few lighthouse pictures from my trip to Maine… the first one is my favorite, and it’s of the Portland Head Lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth (click on picture to see full size version - it’s much more spectacular!)

Cruisin’

My friend Beck was thinking about buying one several months ago, and I basically told her that. She ended up buying a Subaru Outback (which [...]

What happens in Vegas…
Is fun! It was a whirlwind trip, and while I didn’t get outside the hotel hardly at all, it was still a lot of fun.
Let me just tell you, I paid for that hour and a half at the pool on Wednesday. SUNBURNT! I mean, looked like a freakin’ lobster. The conference went really well, [...]

Vegas, baby!
I’m here! The last 24 hours have been a whirlwind of busyness. It is SO hot here, but at least it’s not so humid. Yesterday it was 104!!! I’m staying here at the fabulous Wynn Las Vegas, and it is really swanky. Unfortunately I haven’t seen much outside of the hotel. The setup for this [...]

Am I going to melt?
Ok, so I’m scheduled to go to Las Vegas next week (staying at the Wynn - yay!) for work, and I thought hm… I’ll check the weather. So, I went to www.weather.com to check out the forecast for next week. THIS is what I found. What am I going to do? Melt?
