The Good Year: March 2011
http://the-good-year.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 18, 2011. It's been a fun ride. I've seen well over 1000 miles of road. I've dropped 14 pounds. I've taken more pills than I thought I could stomach (don't worry, doc's prescription and natural supplements only! I've kept track of more details on life than my mind can handle. And I've collected more bikes than I can ever afford (anyone in the market for a 56cm Roubaix? Dare I say it? Welcome to The Good Year: Chapter 5. Posted by Dylan Steele. Thursday, March 17, 2011. Go west old man,.

The Good Year: June 2011
http://the-good-year.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Let me shake this jetlag out of the system and then we'll get back to it. In the meantime, a little taste of the other side of the world. Monks in Tiananmen Square. Forbidden City seems to not be so forbidden to a million tourists. Totally worth the hike up. Dancing at the Dragon Boat Festival. CCTV Building. So much bigger than I pictured. Hot Pot is completely worth it, even with my bad stomach. I speak no Madarin. The cards were appreciated. BEST BOATHOUSE. PERIOD. The wild thi...

aRAYbia: November 2011

Read all about my expat adventures! Monday, November 28, 2011. A tale of two Thanksgivings. My oven needs a rest! Though now that I'm officially in the holiday spirit it's hard to turn that kind of magic off. I've been cooking up a storm though for double Thanksgiving- one for 200 service members at work and one for just the hubs and me. First of 10 turkeys to meet the fryer. My very first turkey. Pumpkin pie for the troops. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Gobble gobble, indeed.

Airstream Nomad: Adventure-less
http://airstreamnomad.blogspot.com/2010/06/adventure-less.html
Pursuing an iconic life one adventure at a time. Monday, June 28, 2010. It's hard to have an adventure blog when you aren't really doing anything particular adventurous. Just the normal - slaving for the mortgage, getting in some mountain biking, hiking, kayaking when I have a free morning or evening and before summer disappears. Working the 9 to 5 patiently counting the minutes until my next adventure. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. My Favorite Spots on the Net.

Read all about my expat adventures! Tuesday, June 21, 2011. I listen to my Motley Fool podcasts religiously. I occasionally disregard the disclaimer at the end of the show where they tell me to do my own investment research and blindly make some purchases based on the day's discussion. So far so good! Last week their news was abuzz with Kraft food hitting their 12th brand that grosses over 1 billion (with a B) dollars.can you guess? From: Jaclyn Ray [ jaclyn.m.ray@gmail.com. Check out the tang commercial!

Read all about my expat adventures! Tuesday, February 14, 2012. Feb Update.using the term loosely. I feel badly for neglecting the blog, but there's truly not much to report. The usual day is just: work, school, gym, school, sleep: Repeat. Doesn't make for a very interesting post.So just to keep the ol' readers interested, I figured I'd post some of the weird stuff I've seen lately. Enjoy! Nice advertisement for abaya wipes. Important to keep those stains from setting on your all-black ensemble.

Aka: On When I Realize I'm a Poor Tourist. Tourist Central over here! Alright, enough Dikensian stalling.as you can tell I'm getting into the spirit of things. I'm in London and loving the sensation of being dropped in a strangely familiar Western world. If you build it, they will come. Take two: success. I panicked and ordered GBP 16 ($27) ...

Friday, December 17, 2010. About to begin re-entry. I've heard that as you pass through the upper layers of the atmosphere it's impossible to transmit and most electronics stop worki. Posted by Dylan Steele. Wednesday, December 15, 2010. This past summer I was given some unexpected advice from respected executive. He shared with me the secret to chalking up the big W after it's all said and done. His formula is simple: "He who has the best stories at the end, wins.". Welcome to The Good Year. It's finall...

Read all about my expat adventures! Friday, October 7, 2011. Which means my whirlwind 12 days in Kandahar are coming to a fast close as I'm leaving tomorrow! What better way to celebrate than with a goodbye dinner at our local TGIFridays with my awesome co-worker, Sarah. And three of my new transient military friends. Http:/ www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,2001475,00.html. I've really been grateful for my time here- and who knows- I may be back sooner than you know! October 9, 2011 at 1:53 PM.

Read all about my expat adventures! Tuesday, October 18, 2011. All about work. Again. No pictures this week either.but it was between not updating at all, or just updating with words. Hopefully you'll forgive me and I'll keep it brief. Let's be honest, I'm really just procrastinating. However, in the midst of this uphill climb the following things have occurred:. My amazing friend, Audrey, procured a bottle of Cholula for the Ray household! Pizza night will never be the same again. Friday, October 7, 2011.
