From Red Eye to Flat Tire. UGH!
The red eye flight from John Wayne Airport (love they named their facility after The Duke!) to Midway just landed, but they’re telling us we won’t be able to “deplane” (is that really a word) for some unforeseen amount of time. I gather there are some challenges with the wheels of the plane, and now [...]
Unexpected Anaheim Convention Center Hotel Diversion

My business travel schedule had me staying in Seattle and then flying directly to Illinois. The game plan was that I’d stay in Washington until Monday morning, fly to Midway, check-in, and be ready for meetings on Tuesday, early a.m.
Unfortunately, a co-worker has come down with something [...]
How to be Treated Humanely by Airport Security

So, my flight from Seattle’s SeaTAC airport was delayed. Still no Kindle but I did have a half finished paperback in my carry on that I was able to pass the time with. In fact, I took a break from reading to check email and thought I’d mess around typing a post [...]
In Seattle Wondering About My Socks
Hey, forgive me for not posting anything in a few days. I slightly sprained my left knee while hitting golf balls during my trip down in Los Angeles, and I’ve just not felt the motivation when I’m back in my Mainstay suites room. But I can reiterate how great having the extra space, the kitchenette, [...]
Golfing While in Los Angeles
When I leave L.A., I’ll be heading up to Seattle for a nice week long stay at one of those extended stay hotel suites. These are really cool because you feel just like you’re at home when you’re there. I should add that to my list of reasons that traveling is great. The relative luxury [...]
Quick L.A. trip and Pondering the Kindle
Found out a bit ago that I have to get down to the LAX airport hotel for a mid morning meeting. I was scheduled for appointments the day after tomorrow in Century City, but now I’ve had to change flights and get an extra night at the hotel.

5 Top Reasons Travel is Great!
Back from having my favorite dish ever: Duck Chow Fun at Sam Wo’s. Did I mention how much I liked that place? Anyway, now that my belly’s full (and some leftovers for later. Yeah!) I’m settling into my SFO airport hotel room. These are the times, these very moments, that I love the [...]
Sam Wo’s FTW!
LOL! I had mentioned how much I was hoping to get to my favorite Chinese, Sam Wo once I had gotten settled in after landing in San Francisco. That link to their site is actually somewhat hilarious because it’s sooo much like the restaurant. There’s really nothing there at the site. But when I was [...]
MNF was Great, Now on to San Francisco
Decent game last night. At this point with all the moving around, I really don’t find myself connected to any one team. As I might have mentioned previously, I tend to enjoy the competition of the college game more than NFL, so I’ve not become emotionally attached to any of them.
Just like watching good plays. [...]
Good Business Hotels Have Monday Night Football
I’m not a huge professional football fan, however, I do like the sport. While I may spend more of my sports television viewing time watching the college game, I still like Monday Night Football. Some of my earliest childhood memories was watching MNF with my dad. It was some of the best one on one [...]
