I know, I completely skipped over Day One so here’s a quick rundown. Leaving our house and driving down Robson during the wee hours of Saturday morning I hit a bump in the road – apparently I decapitated a pigeon that was slow to move out of my way. Luckily the rest of the trip […]

Not a week goes by that I am asked some sort of question by a tourist on the street and usually it’s about the bus. Sure, the Translink “Trip Planner” seems to be a decent “A to B” service, although getting from the Westin to Granville Island really isn’t an FAQ I encounter. It’s more […]

Looking for a funky web savvy boutique hotel in downtown Vancouver that won’t break the bank? Recently Mark from Chicago contacted me through the blog to ask about such a place since he’ll be coming to town this fall. I don’t want to pay stratospheric prices […] Is there a smaller, classy, tech-friendly place you […]

Friday night after being totally Duff’ed out, I met up with John at home (after he had a busy day up in Whistler). We packed up the car and hit the road, heading deep into those dark mountain passes. John was by my side the whole way, telling me stories about work and playing some […]

We stopped by Corinna‘s briefly the other night and she made a comment about how she didn’t know we were leaving town because I hadn’t blogged it yet. So here is the mandatory ‘we’re going away’ post. I’m super excited about going on a mini-trip with John tonight. After his long day up the coast […]

I realized this morning that my return shuttle ticket for the airport states that I must book my pickup 24 hours in advance. D’oh! Looks like I’ll be cabbing it, and probably soon too. I’ll get some airport breakfast and enjoy the free wifi, which is SUCH a nice perk, thanks again McCarran. Last night […]

18:40 – I’m sitting in Matt’s Las Vegas getaway, chatting to Jennie Roth – long time Matt fan, while watching as his fans from around the continent try to take in this whole experience. I met up with the other attendees at 3:00pm and it was nice to get to know people before all coming […]

I am fully hotel’ed, sitting here in the Luxor looking down on the pool I’m going to go jump into. McCarran was awesome, I sat down at a food court table when my plane landed and about 5 people came up to talk to me…. just randomly. The best was this man from Washington, DC […]

Update: Hospital Music started streaming at midnight on MatthewGood.org, and concert dates were announced on the FOX this morning as well – Happy Birthday Matt!. My sister sent me a text that I received here in Salt Lake – she was trying to win tickets by answering a trivia question: What high school did Matthew […]

After having traveled to the UK every few months in the last year and a half I am pretty used to the slight differences in everyday life. Looking right before crossing the street, ordering your food at the bar, trousers are pants/pants are underpants (this can make for some interesting conversations) and so on. I […]
