Introduction: I start graduate school in two weeks. I am spending my last two weeks before it starts going on a trip out west that is partially a mid-winter ski trip and ending with some sun in Arizona. Don’t worry there will be plenty of train rides including finding the ex-NJT ComArrows Amtrak California has […]

Update: Santa Clara and San Jose
The reason I haven’t gotten any updates out lately is the fact I’m working on a couple grandiose projects for the website. One of which is finally getting Caltrain up on the web, a project I started a few months ago, stopped and am now, finally, coming back to hammer it out and finish. This […]

The DC Metro is one of the only transit systems left in the US I haven’t done at all for my website. I just never quite got down to DC in its awkward position of being close enough for a long day trip but not far enough away for a real getaway. Probably the main […]
To come home from Charleston the choice is obvious, the Palmetto to Washington, DC with a same ticket stopover have an overnight with my Aunt and Uncle and enjoy DC before continuing home just under the 23 hours and 30 minute cutoff that turns a stopover into a layover (and would have given me a […]
Introduction: A year ago today exactly I snagged a great deal on a Southwest Airlines flight for $87 from New York to Denver to start my weeklong skiing in Utah and visiting friends in Denver Trip. I ended up canceling that ticket which on Southwest Airlines gives you a credit and then buying another one […]
I haven’t updated this blog over the past couple days because I have been trying to decide the best way to react and whether to post the photos I’ve taken of the derailment that happened last Sunday Morning. I’ve decided to since it seems like a topic that my website should cover (although I’m not […]
