Tin Shed Withdrawals
While you were sleeping Sean and I were having the worst eggs known to civilization. As you know, breakfast is our meal of choice. Whether it’s at the Glenwood in Eugene, or the Tin Shed in Portland, or any yet-to-be-tried diner of the day. But who would of thought that we’d be having our once weekly get together at Chicago’s O’Hare airport. At 5:30a.m.
I had a 4:30-7:00a.m. layover on my way to Montreal, and Sean came an hour early to meet up before his flight back to Portland.
We mistakenly passed up Cinnabon for a full meal at Chili’s, but the booth was worth it.
Sean updated me on his vacation, and I gave him the latest on the Sand marketing frontline. We even spent a moment at Waterstone bookstore to turn the book face out.
It was great to do our thing — get pumped on current projects, and dream a bit about the promise of near and distant possibilities.
Though it’s safe to say, we both still need a Tin Shed fix.
Proof that this early morning meetup really happened? It’s all in the pics.

All I can say about pic#1 is free entry to Q-Bar buddy.
Two questions,did he eat the BigMouth Burger for breakfast and did he sleep in that hat?
Nope on the Burger and nope on the hat…we had re-constituted eggs (horrible)
Not sure what you mean by “free entry to Q-Bar” Nick - but it is either a compliment or a piss take. Thank-you either way…I surely deserve it.
I’m sure Nick will enjoy taking you to the Q-Bar in Seminyak, Sean. It always seems very popular with the blokes.

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 …

Hi Jen & Sean:
Hey if you’re truly breakfast people and ever in the area, not too far from the Ontario Airport (20 mins) is a great place for breakfast called BC Cafe. The servings are big and the food & service is great. 10fwy @ the Indian Hill offramp in Montclair.
Cheers.
