Countdown continues, less than 48 hours till takeoff

It’s coming down to the wire, just about everything I can prepare for is done, now it’s just the nerves. I always get anxious about traveling like this, because so many things are out of my control, like airplane delays and weather. So far all looks good, but that doesn’t get rid of the nagging worry. It probably won’t really go away until halfway across the Pacific! 😆

Stay tuned!

Been a bit too busy to blog…

Between workload on my project and trying to work up my portfolio with photos from my great-nephew’s wedding, I have been only sparsely blogging. But, that’s going to improve soon, as my role on the project ends Monday, and I’ve finished with the wedding photos (but not the others which I have yet to move from here).

I don’t have anything else to write about right now, but feel free to go check out my portfolio site, where I’ll be occasionally posting or moving photos as I get to them. I’ll be on the lookout for more fun and unusual stuff when I start wandering the ‘net again!

Nerd Tour 2003

What is Nerd Tour 2003? It’s my doofy name for the cross-country road trip I’m taking over the next 4 weeks.

Why a road trip? Two reasons: One, it’s kind of the American thing to do, to take to the road, following the sunset; and Two, it’s unAmerican the way people are treated by the “security” staff at US airports, so this is my personal thumb in the eye of government officials who want to assume I’m a criminal and insist on treating me that way.

I’m planning to use this journal to let people who are interested (all 5 of you! 🙂 know where I am and what I’m doing, updating it every evening when I stop for the night, AOL willing and the phones work right. There may be pictures as well, occasionally. We’ll have to see how it works out.
