Heading Out To Europe

It's been awhile since my last post. Things have been extemely BUSY. I've had SO many problems with technology (both personal, at work and at school) in the last few months. It's been frustrating and draining. I've found myself feeling exhausted daily. My concentration is poor, my left eye has been twitching for weeks and I often have headaches.

Time to get away.

Sandy and I are flying out tomorrow for a LONG overdue trip. We'll be traveling around France and Spain for the next 2 weeks. We're going on a LIGHT travel trip. We're taking small travel rolly luggage that converts to backpacks. No need to check luggage. We're taking minimal clothing and will be doing laundry along the way.

We'll be in Paris for a few days, then travel to the Loire Valley. Visit Normandy and Mont St. Michel. After a week in France we'll fly to Madrid. We'll travel to Toledo and Sevilla. The heaviest luxury item I'm brining and refuse to leave home is ... anyone care to guess? My SLR digital camera. Other than that, no palm, no computer, no cell phones, and no USB thumb drives! Ahh! We will be brining our GPS (of course!)

This will be a chance for me to unplug and get off the grid. I really need to get away for a bit and recharge.

We'll be doing "some" recording and have already set it up so that we'll still be delivering 2 Monday podcacher shows (thanks to my bro-in-law Steve).

I'll be bringing my harmonica to brush up on my skills.

Although there'll be LOTS to do when I get back (there always is), for now it's time to say ciao!
