I just got home from a two-week business trip to New York City. I was here last October for a software systems upgrade but this time I was assisting with moving the office (corporate headquarters) from Park Avenue to 1 Rockefeller Center. This ended up being 15 straight days in the office, averaging 13 hours …
None of us had super-early flights out this morning so we got to sleep in a bit again and start our recovery before having to go back to work tomorrow. Travel day …
I’m heading to Las Vegas for the next three days with some old college friends. None of us have been there before so this should be a fun trip!

Spring has already arrived in Florida, but I’m sure my siblings are ready to get out to warmer climes for a few days. This …
It was a long week (4 days of travel, 3 days of vacation) but we’re back in warm Florida after our trip up north to Ohio for the Thanksgiving holiday. Despite the heavy snow on Thanksgiving day, slightly warmer temperatures on Friday allowed for the roads to be clear and easy to navigate, so once …
Happy Thanksgiving from snowy, Cleveland, Ohio! What posessed us to drive over 1,200 miles from warm, sunny Florida to Ohio around arguably one of the busiest travel times of the year? 1) It was a little last-minute; we didn’t have any big plans for Thanksgiving and had nowhere else to really be. 2) Our dog …
The past two weeks involved a lot of hard work (and very long days), but the upgrade was a success and I’m back home in Florida. Here’re some tidbits from my trip: $17/night for WiFi at the Marriott East Side? and no room service? there’s literally a Starbucks on every block here … sometimes more …
