    In an earlier post I talked about a friend of mine from high school who I visited up in Boston during my freshman year of college. This friend of mine never moved back from Boston. Throughout the years whenever I’d be up in Boston I would get together with him. Whether I was in town…

    As I drove away from my son’s school for the 3rd time that day I was tired. His school is 40 minutes from home. They decided to have a parents night and thus I had to go back a third time. The drive seems to be harder on me than it is on him each…

    I had such bitter sweet feelings as I drove home from Boston. At that time it had been just over a few days since the 7 year anniversary of when my friend Andy passed away. He and I never actually hung out in Boston together. I knew him from our time in New York. I…

    Paella is regarded as the national dish of Spain and is THE dish to get while in Valencia. I have not had the chance to go to Valencia yet, but I have spent quite a bit of time in Barcelona. On my last trip, I had 5 nights in Barcelona and had paella every single…

    I fell in love in Iceland.  Not in the way I fell in love in Italy.  In Italy, from the moment I arrived I felt like I had come home.  And with home, you love it, but there are things you also hate about it.  It’s crazy and chaotic, but you really wouldn’t have it…
