Reboot again

It's been a couple of years since my last post, for my ultimately incomplete series on my July 3-9, 2013 trip to New York and Boston.   Other things kept getting in the way - school, work, two other blogs, etc., etc., etc.   Please forgive my neglect.  

I have some new adventures and travel-related commentary coming your way shortly.    I will be returning to New York/Boston in July, and adding an additional leg of the trip by heading to Portland, ME.   No schoolwork to get in the way of the motley - just an adventure in tourism with an East Coast flair, done as I did it two years ago - no cars, mass transit and trains, and a lot of walking.    Getting to know a historic part of the country on the ground level (and above), on foot, and with the people who make those cities and regions go.   I'm looking forward to it, and this time, intend to publish a complete travel log, with pictures and recommendations.  

I've got a few other things I'll publish in the next few months.   I'll be devoting some space to using mass transit, and on ways to get to point A-B without the expense and hassle of automobiles.   Cars are unavoidable in many areas, and even preferred - but in the big cities like New York, San Francisco, and a few other places, cars are not only unnecessary, they're a big P.I.T.A.     Besides, if you're able, hoofing it and taking transit gets you closer to the people, which I think is just as important (if not more so) as the buildings, attractions, and history.   I'll also find and share some tips which might help save some valuable cash on these types of excursions, and information sources which can help enrich your own experience as they did mine.  

Expect more to come shortly.    Stay tuned.
