Blog observations

Checking around on the the blogs I follow, it seems that when its not summer, there's not as much information to post. Those long trips that are so interesting to follow just don't seem to happen. Everyone gets involved in work and school.

There are some good travelers out there. Our caddy at Flint Hills National who was Jay, was a travelling caddy. He said this was the first fall/winter that he was not in Florida. He had working in Kansas during the summer, and was making his way back to the East Coast for the spring.

It reminded me of the book Dishwasher about a man's quest to wash dishes in all 50 states. I found him on the David Letterman show. Funny story, the first time he was invited, he decided not to go and send a friend to impersonate him. Cashed the check to boot. And he got invited back, which was when I saw him.

Also another good book about travellers is Into the Wild which I'd highly recommend. It was made into a good movie as well.
