It's just past six in the morning, and the world outside the windows of the United Club is still wrapped in darkness.

An Unexpected Sunset at DEN
Every seasoned traveler knows the feeling: that sinking realization that your meticulously planned schedule is about to be undone. My trip to Memphis began with just that—a delay.

Florida Bound
Every great trip begins with a single step or, in this case, the closing of an airplane door. Tim and I are on our way!

A Flying Start
Another trip, another early morning at Denver International Airport. This time, I'm headed to New York City for a week of Event Storming sessions.

...and We're Off to Florida
After the surprise call from UCF and the scramble to get a new headshot, the time has finally come to travel. Today, I'm heading to Orlando for the AlumKnight awards reception. The journey starts with a familiar drive to the airport under a classic Colorado sky. It's always a little surreal to start a trip, leaving one place behind for a few days to celebrate in another. Next stop, Florida!

Wherever you are today, I hope your travels are just the start of a great adventure.
