Well folks we finally made it out of Ontario (in case you didn't get that from the title). It was long, it was strenuous, it was worth it. The hell with everyone saying you should cut through the states because it's faster, since when was a road trip about getting

Day 2 of the Lunchbox Shuttle to Vancouver

Well believe it or not we were awake on time but somehow still got off to a slow start. The first bad sign was when I broke the elevator. I don't fully believe it was my fault but since I did push the button to take us to the wrong floor I guess I must shoulder some of the blame. I've never seriously considered the idea of

The S & S Lunchbox Shuttle - Destination: Vancouver - Day 1

As some of you may know our departure time was 6am, we wanted to start the trip with optimistic goals. But like most people, we had to face reality

Young as F#@%... (Month of Your Life)

 My favourite month of the year is AUGUST. In August I will be in my late 50's...

Travel NOW!!!

I figure since this blog began with traveling I should get back to that theme somewhat. Most people always think, and talk about where they want to travel next, but if that's the question you keep asking then most likely it will never happen. It's the same as thinking about what you would do if

SUBconscious Travel pt. 1

It's become part of the daily routine. Quickly gather whatever I need for the particular outing, stuff it in my bag and race out the door hoping I haven't forgotten anything. Race down the street and dodge traffic as I cross the street to Old Mill subway station. There have been some close calls

It's Been Awhile

Not just a great song by Staind featuring Fred Durst. I know, many people want to curse me for even using the name "Fred Durst" and the word "great" in the same sentence. Too bad, a good song is a good song. Anyway, it has been a while since I've posted a blog and
