I’m the first to admit it, I’m a crazy planner, especially when it comes to vacations. I love researching plans and locations, pouring over maps, finding amazing hole-in-the-wall establishments and making trips in general more fun by creating itineraries that I can feverishly look forward to.

You KNOW your parents got you some awesome gifts – some of which you asked for and others that may be complete surprises – and either way, waiting to find out what’s inside those perfectly wrapped boxes is almost as fun as it is to actually open them and enjoy the contents. My pre-planned itineraries are a lot like a stack of wrapped presents. Read more…

“Oil Can What?” Said the Scarecrow
By Paul Giles
