Before Christmas I wrote about the light up the ballpark and Christmas Village that they put on at Truist Park here in Charlotte. Well, I think I might like their next big event/promotion even better. As you can see from the link here, they are now offering to rent out the luxury suites at theContinue reading “Moving My Office to the Ballpark”

Trip Planning the Viking Way – Part Two
Still not a how to guide on invading England. Okay, so we have talked about my theories on airlines and lodging options so let’s move on to more of the good stuff when it comes to planning a trip. As I mentioned last time we are planning on heading to Los Angeles to tour someContinue reading “Trip Planning the Viking Way – Part Two”
Trip Planning the Viking Way – Part One
Okay, so that headline makes it sound like I’m planning an invasion of England and that this post will focus on important things like knowing how many boats to bring, what the ratio of warriors to boat is, and how many chickens are required to keep a Viking horde fed before they can begin plundering.

Hattie B’s at Home
So, I definitely love some good fried chicken, and have had the opportunity to taste offerings in many different settings. Some of my favorites have been The Cluck Shack in San Diego, and the food stall at Reffen in Copenhagen. But, I have a huge soft spot for Nashville Hot Chicken and have tried manyContinue reading “Hattie B’s at Home”
We Made It (Good Riddance 2020)

It’s not like 2021 is going to start off a whole lot better, but at least there is a reason for some optimism. While 2020Continue reading “We Made It (Good Riddance 2020)”
Christmas in Greenville
Christmas in Greenville For the last six years we have enjoyed a holiday tradition of traveling for Christmas rather than exchanging gifts. We have been able to spend Christmas in great places like Edinburgh, Maui (a couple of times), Hilton Head Island and even Disney World (Our daughter had just turned 10). Obviously this yearContinue reading “Christmas in Greenville”
Christmas at the Ballpark
Christmas at the Ballpark Normally, we travel for Christmas, as we decided a few years ago that rather than exchange presents as a family we would rather spend that money to travel to fun places and have experiences. Not that we don’t all love Christmas and gifts, but with family spread out everywhere, and theContinue reading “Christmas at the Ballpark”
Escape to the Beach
A couple of weeks ago we decided to undertake a little escape and arranged to spend a week out on the coast. Not a complete vacation, but at least an opportunity to spend time in a different house and at least have the sounds of the ocean in the background. We have been out toContinue reading “Escape to the Beach”
Bringing Thanksgiving Travel Home
So normally we travel somewhere fun for Thanksgiving, as being Canadian we don’t have a lot of family obligations during this time of the year. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving in October – hey, it’s a lot colder up there and you have to bring the harvest in earlier. We have been lucky in that my wifeContinue reading “Bringing Thanksgiving Travel Home”
