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.

Taste the Memories

As I remember, the first time I had the Dole Whip it was merely an obscure dessert in a deep corner of Disney's Magic Kingdom.  However, now the Dole Whip enjoys close to a Mickey Mouse following.  Lines are around the corner so far that passers by can be heard asking, "Who's autograph are they waiting on?"  No autograph seekers here, oh you ill-informed Disney patron, just a bunch of bandwagoners(yes that's a word, look it up) and yours truly, one of the original fans of the Orange and Vanilla swirl with Pineapple juice in the bottom, otherwise known at Disney as the Dole Whip waiting in line for one of Walt's greatest creations.   Longest.  Sentence.  Ever.

Hard Traveling


Times They Are A-Changing

Well they've already changed.  Interesting picture here.  The blued out space is actually covering the word Telephone.  This picture was taken at a rest stop in Georgia.  Or as the locals pronounce it, Jahjuh. Wonder when they decided to eliminate pay telephones at rest areas in Georgia.  Did that come up for a vote in the Jahjuh House and Senate?  Interesting sign of the times.  Onward to Ormond!

He's Back

Yep.  The traveling job coach is back at it.  Doesn't it seem like traveling would have two L's in it?  Even when I type travelling, doesn't that look right to you?  Oh really?  That's rude of to say.  

Anyway, I'm taking the Ridge View Cross Country program to Disney for a race on Saturday.  We are on the road now and will be staying at the beachfront Howard Johnson in Ormond Beach, FL tonight, then getting up early tomorrow to go to the parks all day, race Saturday then parks after that and then return on Sunday.  Looking forward to a good trip.  

I just moved the blogger app to my "desktop" and you all know what that means, Rosefield will be a-blogging.....or at least that's the plan.  Yes, I referred to myself in the third person.  Get over it.

Flight View

Special thanks to Mike at Flight View for creating such a cool app.  Not sure if Mike was responsible, but you were Mike, then thanks.   My apologies to the correct person responsible for the app. 

Now that we got that out of the way let me tell you how nice this app is.  Very easy way to Cheka(iOS just autocorrected to this instead of "check" but I'm going to leave it because I think it's cool) on yor flight status and also see where your plane is in the air.   Pretty best stuff.   Thanks Internet.   You're awesome.

Testing 1, 2, Dallas

Yes.   I'm back along with the lame jokes.   Ok ok.  I don't care if you don't think they're funny, I will still call them jokes.   

Whatever, you're not listening anyway.   

I'm back on the travel horse blazing a trail to the Big D for the 2014 Final Four.   Definitely excited to be heading to a city that I haven't spent much time in and one that features so much neon.  

Stay tuned for an update or several.  Or none at all.   I may just be messing with you.   How dare I?
