Here, There and Everywhere

So it's been a while since I posted. Several years. To be quite honest, sometimes I thought about blogging. Sometimes I even took notes while on tour so that I could blog. Sometimes I even mentally composed posts.
But all the 'shoulda, coulda, woulda' in the world didn't actually translate to a post.

But lately as I travel more and more.... people are asking me to post more. No promises, but hey this post is an attempt to start back.

So my last posts were in Iceland in June 2016. Places outside of the US I've visited since then:
* Germany (of course!)
* England (of course again!)
* Canada
* Austria
* Argentina
* Uruguay
* Poland
* Lithuania
* Sweden
* Belarus
* Norway
* The Ukraine

Surprisingly I traveled a lot around the US as well - two road trips with my friend Lisa took us into the following States:
* Indiana
* Ohio
* Pennsylvania
* New York
* Maine
* New Hampshire
* Connecticut
* Massachusetts
* West Virginia
* Washington
* Oregon
Plus other travels took me to the States of:
* Texas
* Nevada
* Colorado
* Virginia
* Wisconsin
* Illinois
* Missouri

And well then I would be remiss if I didn't mention the fact that I moved.... across the world...to the country of:
* Latvia

So if I tried to do a post for each and all of these, I'd be writing til the cows come home. So I am going to take the easy way out and share a few photos of key places. Although I really do plan to do a series of posts about Latvia. It's my new home after all....

Without further ado... random photos from the last two years of travel:
