Traditionally, this post has been one of my most popular of the year. Traditionally, it has also come out in, well, January, ha.

Where we’re at: I’m covering my road trip in the American South in April and May of 2022, including speaking at Travelcon in Memphis. The rumors are true. After three incredible conferences and one industry-disrupting global pandemic, TravelCon has closed its doors. For me, it’s an emotional goodbye.

Where we’re at: I’m recapping my brief travels in the fall of 2018. As my plane touched down in Texas, I internally cheered. I’d just made it one step closer to my goal of someday visiting all nifty fifty — the Lone Star State was #23. And who doesn’t want to visit Austin, what with all […]

 

Where we’re at: I’m recapping my brief travels in the fall of 2018.  Hear that sound? It’s wedding bells, my friends. I think at this point I legitimately have six weddings I need to blog about. I’ve debated whether or not to make a blog post out of each of them, but in this case I […]
