My Blogger Intro

So, I am starting to ride the wave of blogging.  I decided to get this up to share with everyone about the places I travel too, which at this point, does not include a long list of places.  However, I do have a few trips up and coming and I like to share my experiences with people (if they are willing to read about them!).  Thank you Kristi W. for the recommendation and Eleanore for an example of the idea, which I am now stealing from you.

Currently counting down:  3 days until we leave for San Diego (well, technically Carlsbad) via a stop off in beautiful Bakersfield, CA.  We're (me and my lovely sis-in-law RK) are going to be staying with some friends of ours at a timeshare they scored for cheap.  We'll be driving down Saturday afternoon to Bakersfield to visit my sis-in-law's family for a night, and then on down to the San Diego area the next day.  We fly back in on Wednesday, Oct. 14, on Jet Blue...scored tickets for $29.00 plus fees (thanks JoJo)!  I'm pumped to be able to have a few days off to just relax by the pool, read, drink wine, and listen to my iPod.  And we will be right by the beach, which is my happy place.  More to come on that.

Also, I am counting down yet another trip back home to Maui (yes, I try to go home at least once a year).  Will I have anything new to report?  Maybe.  And maybe I just get to write about places that I've been to a million times before.  I'll be there from Nov. 26, 2009 to Dec. 6, 2009, and my lovely sis-in-law RK will also be accompanying me on this trip.  Stay tuned for words about food, the beach, more food, and relaxation.
