Travel Stories

2014

Valentine’s Day Winter Weather

Due to the system delays caused by Winter Storm Pax, my flights home on 14 February went through rather a lot of transitions.

Tulsa Travel

It’s not uncommon to have delays going through Chicago, but this trip to Tulsa was a bit involved.

2016

Ohio County Courthouses

In the summer of 2016, I visited every one of Ohio’s 88 counties.

2020

Work Travel During a Pandemic

My job had me fly a few times during the COVID-19 restrictions, and it was an odd experience.

2021

A Water Salute and the Breaking of a Voucher Chain

I earned a United voucher from a trip I booked on another United voucher, but I finally broke that trend in May 2021 by taking United’s first flight between Columbus, Ohio and Portland, Maine.

2023

New York, D.C., and Iceland

We took a vacation in January 2023, visiting (among other things) the TWA hotel, Reykjavík, Akureyri, and mall cats.
