Travelin' With The Kid: July 2008
http://travelnhsr.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Travelin' With The Kid. Tuesday, July 22, 2008. On The Steps to the Launch Pad. Well I have finally recovered from that rite-of-passage all teenage males go through. Driving the family car, alone. Right now The Kid is at the car dealer, on an errand for mom. The driver seat in the car has to be adjusted one way for me, another way for The Kid. Unfortunately, when that adjusting mechanism broke, it was in The Kid's setting, so off he had to go to the car dealer to have it fixed. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Travelin' With The Kid. Saturday, December 29, 2007. Vehicle Theme: Bungee Cords to Keep Orifices Closed. Well Happy New Year. This year has been an interesting one for The Kid and I. Huge events in our travels, though most of the huge events occurred at home. Yes our travelin' feet got to hit the trail a couple of times in 2007, but it was the things at home that really shaped our year. Daphne the Science Guinea Pig. Also this summer my neighbor moved away leaving her house to her son. An interestin...

Travelin' With The Kid. Wednesday, June 06, 2007. Windjammer Ships and Pirate Adventures: Statia - The Real Caribbean. Day 6: Statia (Saint Eustatius) - February 22, 2007. The Real Caribbean and Crab Number 3. Saint Eustatius, or Statia,. As the locals call it, was my favorite place on this trip. It is also what you would call the "real Caribbean". So What is the "real" Caribbean? The journal entry I wrote in my diary:. The blue beads of Statia. It wasn't until afternoon, and it was well into the 100's t...

Travelin' With The Kid: May 2008

Travelin' With The Kid. Tuesday, May 27, 2008. Student Driver: Feel Sorry for Me. There was a time when I would look at a slow moving vehicle on the highway, the one with the "Student Driver" sign taped to the back window and feel irritated, today, I have a different sentiment. That sign should say "Student Driver: Feel Sorry for Me". Announcement , it was just too easy for The Kid to let mom drive him everywhere, 5 days a week, so the 50 hours weren't getting done - at all. Do you have ten dollars?

Travelin' With The Kid. Sunday, August 05, 2007. Windjammer Ships and Pirate Adventures: Anguilla. Day 7: Anguilla February 23, 2007. The Best Beach in the World and The Diver Kid. I’ve been so busy reviewing books for our upcoming school year, I forgot to conclude the story of our trip on the S.V. Polynesia. Anguilla has the best beach I have ever seen. There is one stop light on this island and lots of goats. There’s also an Ace Hardware, in the middle of nowhere - no where near the stop light.

http://travelnhsr.blogspot.com/2008/11/if-only-we-were-books-what-story-we.html
Travelin' With The Kid. Sunday, November 30, 2008. If Only We Were Books - What a Story We Could Tell. A book registered on BookCrossing is ready for adventure. I like to read travel magazines, every now and then I find a really good bit of advice. Did you know that Cipro is becoming resistant to T.D. in Southeast Asia and that Zithromax. Or a Z-Pac) is a better choice for the duffel to that destination? But back to thinking about the books one leaves behind, it seems there was an entrepreneur. A few yea...

The Kid's 16th Birthday, how could I make it memorable? Sometimes ideas just drop into your lap simply by reading a small local paper. Aviation show: helicopter rides". What an awesome memory.

Travelin' With The Kid. Saturday, February 23, 2008. The Caine Mutiny and Other Snowbird Pursuits - Florida 2008. I guess it would be appropriate to elaborate on the title I chose for these three previous entries. As a Sophomore, The Kid has been reading some books that require a little more thought than usual. Herman Wouk. Another one of my favorite authors is a great story weaver and this trip to Florida we took 2 Herman Wouk. Books with us. One The Kid was reading, The Caine. Beach is where you can fi...

Travelin' With The Kid. Thursday, August 20, 2009. What I Did on My Summer Vacation: College Visits. If you have a teen, who is a Junior in high school, then you are thinking about college. Not only do you get to be the parent and the teacher, but magically, when your student gets to be high school age, you also get to be the guidance counselor too. About a year ago, almost to date, I wrote Not Back to School: A Dancer With Many Hats in a Thankless and Undervalued Job. In The Eclectic Telegraph. The list...
