A few months ago I wrote a post about my personal luggage history.  I’m always fascinated by all the different types of luggage out there around the world.  Soon after writing that post I was contacted by Case Luggage who have a timeline with the history of luggage.  It’s pretty awesome.  I’m not being compensated in any…

Oh, rain. I love rain, and as a Texan in the middle of a drought I don’t see nearly enough of it. So when I am lucky enough to see it, I want to wallow in it. Sit inside my house with a cup of tea, curled up on the couch looking out the window.…
