		<title>Eating our way through Nashville</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The purpose of our weekend trip to Nashville was to see the Blackhawks take on the Predators at Bridgestone Arena.  We figured we&#8217;d spend some time in the honky tonks, too, listening to some live music.  But what we &#8211; or, I should say, I &#8211; didn&#8217;t expect was the abundance of dining options, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>A day &amp; a half in Boston</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Spending any time in Boston was not part of our original Cape Cod vacation plan, but neither were Lucia and Felicia.  Life and travel share many of the same principles, two being the ability to be flexible and the ability to adapt.  So when Felicia and Mom expressed how badly they wanted to spend some [...]]]></description>

		<title>Day trip to Martha&#8217;s Vineyard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are two ways to get to Martha&#8217;s Vineyard: by air or by sea. Since I&#8217;ve neither unlimited income nor a private jet, &#8220;by sea&#8221; it was. At this time of year (late September), ferry schedules and options are not as plentiful as during the summer months.  The schedule and location that worked best for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Where to go and what to see in Provincetown</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I honestly didn’t know what to expect from Provincetown.  We chose the city as the base for our Cape Cod adventure simply because it is one of the largest on the Cape.  Aside from that, all I knew prior to departure is that Provincetown is extremely vibrant and colorful, and there is a very large [...]]]></description>

		<title>How we ended up in a condo in Provincetown</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Provincetown is one of the largest &#8220;cities&#8221; (the word used loosely here) on Cape Cod.  Coming from Chicago and having never been anywhere else on the Cape, I figured staying in Provincetown would be a safe bet for us, that the dining and entertainment options would be more plentiful than in the smaller towns.  Since [...]]]></description>

		<title>My travel bucket list:  Everyone else is doing it so why can&#8217;t I?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s not news to anyone that I like to travel, that I plan trips months in advance.  It’s what keeps me going; I can’t help it.  Some folks think I have traveled extensively – and I have.  I’m not ungrateful for the trips I have taken; however, there is still so much of this world [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wild animal encounter (and why I am terrified of alligators)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every Thursday, I try to participate in Travelers’ Night In (TNI) on Twitter.  It’s in the middle of my workday so sometimes it’s difficult.  TNI basically is a global discussion about, well, travel (read more about it here), with different topics each week.  This week’s topic is “animal encounters” and that got me thinking….. I’ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mimi &amp; The Blue Angels</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend is Chicago’s 52nd Annual Air &#38; Water Show.  I look forward to this event every year, but not because I want to head down to the lakefront to jostle for position and sweat with thousands of suburbanites and tourists.  My reasons are far more sentimental. My paternal grandmother (Mimi, as we called her) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thoughts on the Blackhawks Convention</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I knew this year’s Blackhawks Convention would be insanely crowded since they’re total studs now for winning the Stanley Cup.  I also knew that I probably shouldn’t even think about going because those insane crowds would just annoy me and be the source of severe anxiety for me.  But when a friend of mine said [...]]]></description>

		<title>Highlight of the Blackhawks Convention</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cherish forever, originally uploaded by Francesca&#8230;. The 3rd Annual Blackhawks Convention just wrapped up. I attended for the second, and probably my last, time – but more on that later. The highlight of the entire event, for me, was getting to once again meet my childhood hockey hero, Denis Savard. I had to first wait [...]]]></description>
