Daily Comment

I am going to visit Florida in the early Spring. There are a few people I want to see, and the odds of their ever coming to Syracuse are remote.

At best.

I don't mind. I've never shied away from travel, although it has lost much of the allure I attached to it over the years. Still, I have rarely found that the ever-less-glamorous aspects of travel outweigh the value of my destination.

But travel for its own sake has stopped being attractive to me. As a means to an end, like visiting family and friends, or a vacation destination (typically, a better climate, new experience, cultural event), I will make the effort and discount the discomfort or inconvenience. 

My 'road trip' days? I think I have one left in me, before my amateur traveler status expires.

I do believe that yesterday's late night high-carb, high-fat snack is showing up on the scales. And the Jameson's. And a certain amount of momentum.
