on the road that has likely been traveled....

Oprah once said "Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes and step out and dance" - well I wear heels, carry a backpack equip with my laptop and roll a (currently) red roller bag.

I have found myself lucky enough to have a great job that pays me to meet my customers all across the nation. On a given month, you can find me traveling almost every other week. Although being on the road for work can sometimes be lonely, when I am not entertaining my customers I get to spend quality time wandering interesting cities, eating great food, meeting new people and trying out interesting activities. While traveling has its many perks - of which you will find out if you choose to follow my blog, I end up missing things at home - mostly my family and friends - and, I can only hope that they miss me too :).

By starting this blog, I invite you to follow along with me as I tell stories and take pictures (with my unbreakable camera) of experiences, people I meet, landmarks, weird billboards, anything that I think might make you feel like you are right there with me - because that is just where I wish you were.

I invite comments and questions as well as suggestions for the next time I visit a city or state if you have already been there, or your personal stories. I am looking forward to tracking my travels as well as retracing my steps when I have the chance to revisit or remember. If you live somewhere I am going, please expect an email or a call because I can already say that I would love to see you.

Carpe Diem!
