Its been so long since my last blog entry that I must apologize.  What with chronic low back pain, a fall resulting in a broken heal and two heart attacks, one last October and one last December, its been hard getting back into the game.

What's the news.  There are some plans afoot to sell a selection of my travel images as posters and framed prints on Cafepress.  More on this later.

Why do we travel?  I am not herein referring to the purpose built trip, to attend to a wedding, a funeral or some commerce.  I am referring to that type of travel that quickens the heart and puts a spring back into our step, a smile on our face and some anticipation back into our anticipators. 

To say we are all eager to acquire a sense of place as we travel seems to be some ancestral imperative driving us ever farther, deeper and higher from home.  More on this in the days to come.

I would like to leave you with a little gift.  Right now, at our store LingoTshirts you can use the following coupon for a discount on any item totalling $50 or more.
