    How is Memphis? Looking to do a July travel weekend and they have the best rate (Allegiant Airlines though). Everywhere expensive!

    Bad rap for crime, but it's a'ight. We've stayed at the pyramid twice and enjoyed it. The zoo is pretty cool. Graceland is OK.

    Frankfurt tomorrow! Just for a week to visit a friend who has lived in that area for 15 years or so. Probably going to train through some smaller villages in Germany, the Netherlands, and maybe France or Brussels. I'm not sure exactly, he knows his way around so I'll just follow him and he said we will be off the normal tourist route. Pdx has a seasonal direct flight to Frankfurt also on Condor air, who I have hear are decent. No missed connections this time!

    Rothenberg is a cool village. Pretty small but you can stock up on Christmas ornaments.

    I wanna check out Baden Baden, its like a spa town. Saw it on Rick Steves

    My family went there for spring training one year and it was pretty fun. Hot as balls though. I can only imagine that during the summer it is worse.

    It's basically La Quinta with a few more bars and a few less golf courses.

    Seattle in August. That's the only real vacation I have planned. Going to propose at Kerry Park. Should I hire someone to take pictures?

    Me? My vacation will be like all my other vacations for the last 20 years, dealing with medical issues. This year I get an all expenses paid trip to the hospital for the installation of an artificial heart valve. Are you turning green with envy?

    That would be good. Make sure it's not super crowded when you are there.
