Good news? Bad news? Depends. The FAA (according to Fox News) is going to relax the restrictions on using some personal electronic devices on runways and at low altitudes. Examples given were eReaders, cell phones (in airplane mode), and tablets. Frequent fliers get very frustrated with the ridiculous rules and varying degrees of strictness, so…
A friend asked me yesterday about Kindles and security. (You may have seen the exchange on my Facebook page.) “Do you have to take your Kindle out at security the way you do with a laptop? Or can it stay inside your bag while it goes through x-ray?” Regular readers may have noticed that I…
When I was a kid, I spent hours at the library. I read anything I could get my hands on, and there was no where I would rather be. Fast forward about twenty years, and I still love to read. But I don’t ever go to the library anymore. The combination of less time to…

First of all, I have to say that I am super impressed with my readers. Based on the poll yesterday, about half of you unpack only for longer trips. But so many of you unpack all the time! That’s amazing, and I bow to you for being so organized and dedicated. After the poll, and…
Erin! Her “stickiest travel situation” was tricky indeed, as well as pretty funny. She was randomly selected from all of the entries using the random number generator at Random.org. She will receive a Kindle and a Mitchum stick, courtesy of Mitchum’s “Love Thy Pits” campaign. Thanks Mitchum!! And thanks, Readers, for sharing your worst travel…
Tomorrow bright and early I leave for Nashville. Not looking forward to getting up super early, but the flight is only a couple of hours, and it’s direct, so that’s pretty much as easy as it can be. I will be home tomorrow night, only a day trip, but I will have time for dinner. …
