"Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by the things you
didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines, sail away from
the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.
Discover."
- Mark Twain
The 50/7 Project
As far back as I am able to recall,
I’ve always loved traveling.
That passion began early in my youth, traveling the nation by car with
my family. I’m fascinated by new sights and new experiences, and I fear
I could scarcely survive if confined to one city, even one I love as
much as my current home, San Diego.
Further to my love of traveling, some time ago, I set the goal of
visiting all fifty U.S. states and all seven continents; hence, The
50/7 Project. My original plan was to complete this feat before
my 30th
birthday, but having been delayed somewhat, I am not disheartened. The
project continues. You can track my progress here, as I will tick off
the states and continents visited.
Is Florida really California-East? Read about my tour of the state
from Orlando to Key West, and find out exactly how I feel about that
