Welcome

Formerly titled "The Traveling Job Coach" and then "The Traveling Athletic Director," this blog is
for me and my memory because it's not very good.
My memory is not very good. See what I mean?

This blog has also morphed into a place for me to share my thoughts on life and how I see the world.
These thoughts often bubble to the surface during my travels.

I don't concern myself with grammar. This is simply a place for me to record my memories,
thoughts and feelings while I travel.

I started this blog before my trip to Europe July 10-24, 2009. Email me at brosefield@gmail.com
whilst I'm traveling or comment on posts here if you see something that
strikes your fancy.

Yes, I used the words whilst and fancy in the same paragraph.

Redefining Smells

For years, in my mind, Europeans have had the stereotype of being a
bit on the smelly side. Even though this may not be true, I am
joining their ranks today, Friday, July 17, 2009 as a smelly
Southerner in Europe. As you know by now, I am not a master of the
English language, and I'm not efficient at painting vivid pictures
with words, but imagine a really horrible smell....ok then imagine
that smell getting soaked into an article of clothing.....then imagine
that smell on that article of clothing being stuffed in seemingly an
airtight backpack for seven days....then imagine that smell on that
article of clothing being stuffed in seemingly an airtight backpack
for seven days and permeating to every part of the bag including other
clothes in the bag....oh yeah and multiply that smell roughly 10-5633
times and place it on your person. Then you have a bit if an idea of
what my bag and me smells like

Now that's not to say that bloody(thanks Tony and the boys) situation
will not be remedied tonight because it will be. The plan is to get
to Edinburgh and get some rest and wash clothes for the second half of
this tour.

We'll see how well that plan gets executed
