I know this is not news to my blog readers, but this is put out there for the average traveler going on vacation this year. Last week I was at Phipps Bistro in the A concourse of CLT. This is my usual lunch place when I fly out in the afternoons on Delta. A family…

How I spend my weekends and personal travel
I’m not going to lie that I peruse the USA Today and CNN for material. Sounds like Sarah Sekula at CNN read my mind and posted an article I’ve been meaning to write. I am a hasher. No, I don’t use drugs. I’m in a drinking club with a running problem. What is that you…
Weekly Recap: week of May 13
I know I listed this as a recap of the week of May 13, but it actually started before then since I spent a weekend at my destination. Note, I don’t do this regularly and I always make sure the airfare is cheaper to do this and don’t expense anything before I would have normally…

And the winner is…
The random number generator chose #7 – FEZ. Everyone congratulate FEZ and don’t forget to check out Rugged Readers. Boarding Area rolled back the DNS move so right now flygracefully.com isn’t working, but I’m in the process of rolling that back as well. *Please note, I was provided a pair of rugged readers for…
