Capping our Day at Cap’s

On a Sea of Possibilities

One of the best evenings during my early summer travels to Jacksonville was spent at a restaurant in St. Augustine called Cap’s on the Water. We were a new team, dreaming of new possibilities, eating good food, drinking mojitos and enjoying the sunset on the water. We all felt that we had taken a leap of faith [...]

In the Water

I think my new baby Freya will like the sea too, if bath time is any indication. Of course, it’s summer, and it’s a hot one in Dallas, and it just feels good to get that sticky sweat washed off. But I can imagine her first introduction to the sea after living in a land-locked [...]

Drawn to the Sea

Atlantic Beach, Fla

I spent the last five weeks traveling back and forth between Jacksonville, Fla., and Dallas, Texas, for a new job at Citi. Working all day and flying home every weekend, I was afraid I’d never get a chance to see the beach, to stand in the ocean. But on our last week there, we ventured [...]

The Home Beach

Galveston Count

Having grown up in Galveston County, Texas, I spent a lot of time at the beach, on both the island and the mainland. When Wade wrote about the Oaxaca beaches, it made me think about the miles of Gulf coast beaches that were home to me from fifth grade to college. Each destination has its [...]

Character of Two Texas Cities

I’m inspired by a piece that Wade wrote two months ago about the Character of Oaxaca Beaches and the notion that these locations separated by a few short kilometers would have such distinct cultures. Like beaches, cities also have commonalities, but when you observe their people, you can see how different they really are. Having [...]

e-Book Review: Travels in Ghana

Marie McCarthy has such a fluid prose voice, she makes you feel right at home traveling with her on vacation in Ghana, which is not a place many tourists think to visit. Her e-book Travels in Ghana takes you on a short trip through this friendly west African country, meeting a few people and seeing [...]

What Does it Mean to be Down and Out?

Maslow

I don’t know about you, but I totally buy into Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. OK, so maybe not “totally” because I don’t necessarily think that a person needs to be loved before he can achieve high self esteem, and I don’t believe vagrants can’t be enlightened.  But the overall concept is a great way to [...]

The Reluctant Traveler

Since I read more than I travel, it’s only right that I linger on this thread.  My third and final list of top five travel books is all about the reluctant traveler, the person who finds himself traveling when it’s perhaps against his nature or his inclination. He travels out of necessity or gets trapped [...]

Travel Song Favorites

Although I love music as much as I love books, I’m happy to announce that I was able to pick a nice clean list of five favorite songs about travel.  Enjoy! #5 – On the Road Again, Willie Nelson This was one of my maternal grandmother’s favorite songs, and since she passed in August 2010, [...]

Great Adventurers

My second category for top five travel books is all about great adventurers. These characters take on a life of travel and exploration, driven by their need to seek out new experiences and new opportunities, while some are simply drawn into a long pilgrimage in search of something grand. #5 — Aztec Gary Jennings had to [...]

Mystique isles – an old favourite! I have prints of this one if anyone’s looking for a special xmas pressie. You’d need to frame ‘em though!
