Travel 101

We are about to embark on our first vacation, doubling as a honeymoon and a reward for the lousy ratio we've endured in '07, hence the title of the blog, Travel 101. It’s also my one hundred and first post.

Here’s where we’re headed.



and here’s where we are staying.

Three : Thirteen

That’s a ratio. From what I remember from math class oh so long ago, for every thirteen of x there were three of y. In 2007, x = weeks apart; y = weeks together. I mean the wife and I. No, neither of us were on extended tours of duty in the blood and money pit that is Iraq. Yes, we were both, for the most part, working in our chosen fields. Still and all, for every thirteen weeks alone you get three together...stinks. And we are the lucky ones. The vast majority of the rest of humanity has it much worse.
