I’ve been silent, I know. But it doesn’t take much to derail our schedules/motivation.
This past weekend, my son and I trained it down to Baltimore. My wife was already down there attending a conference and we decided we’d finish off the weekend and celebrate Mother’s Day around the Inner Harbor.
My son loves to travel if not mainly for the life of living in a hotel. In fact, when asked, he’d much rather live in a hotel. Who can blame him? Someone picks up after us. There’s on-time room-service. Pool. Breakfast buffet. Key-cards. TV. Pads of free paper.
