With summer vacations, my wedding & honeymoon, the office being remodeled for more than 4 months, the BnA team has only been together for a few brief stints this summer. It got kind of lonely working from home. But it’s almost [...]

World Peace is declared and all is right in the world.
Today is one of those days, where everything goes right.
I started the day at the Cadillac Cafe with JenLeo, Eric, and Dillon. We had a bit of a bender back at the BnA Hostel last night and had an excellent breakkie.
We are getting oh [...]

The Snake Is Missing

My office today is the downstairs of where I live. My roommate just called my other roommate to ask him to find his 7 foot boa. The last time this happened and Bets got out, I found her in my bathroom. At least this time I know to look for her…but I [...]

….to me! And Joe E. And I’m sure a number of BootsnAll members. Every year on August 12 (in the northern hemisphere at least), there is a meteor shower. I, of course, like to think that it is all because of me, but I think it’s been happening for hundreds of [...]

I am not normally a drama guy. Being in business for almost 6 years now, I have gotten used to the normal ups and downs of life.

Tour de France Fun
Date: July 21st, 2004 | No Comments
Woo hoo! We are pumped about the Tour de France at the office today. Sean and I both were able to catch the mountain time trial before work…I got up at 6 am to watch it, I’m sure the early bird got up before that. It’s amazing to watch athletes at the top [...]

Donovan and I are easily amused and sometimes to shock the system, we make up games. The ones that are really popular right now are: Try to Pronounce That Capital (Tegucigalpa anyone?) and Guess What Courtney’s Hair is Going to Look Like Today. Because I am not either a) a morning person or b) [...]

One of the things that tends to happen when I talk to people about my job at BootsnAll is the, "Oh, you're so lucky!" moment. I do consider myself extremely fortunate to be able to write about travel every day - to do something I love so much that work doesn't feel …

Those of you who read the BootBlog may remember my recent musings on how online friends become real-life friends. What some of you who read that article may not know is that I heard from several BootsnAll members after it was published who said, "Yeah, that's interesting and all, but we've been doing that for years now." And it's … [Read more]

Awhile back I posted here about getting into the Boston Globe Travel Show for free. Turns out that was for the trade conference during the day on Friday Feb 19th, not the travel show for regular consumers like you and me that runs from the evening of Friday, February 19 to …
