Travel Around the House – An Obligatory Resolutions Post

Today is the day for grand proclamations and declarations of lofty achievements.

Although I think these annual resolutions are a bit absurd, I feel the need to join people the world over by participating in this time-honored tradition. In that spirit, I offer these travel declarations for my little slice of 2010:

It has always struck me as odd that over the last decade my lovely wife and I have visited three times more countries than US states. Therefore, I resolve to pass on my passport for the next 12 months and spend my time and money exploring my own country.

Along those same lines, I resolve to discover my hometown and my native state as a tourist instead of a jaded local. The land I belong to is grand, and I resolve to see it through new eyes.

There, my obligatory resolution blog post is complete. Look for me around town. I’ll be the guy with the camera and backpack. Does Rick Steves have a book on Oklahoma?

 Disclaimer: New Year’s resolutions are null and void in the event travel opportunities unknown at this time become available.
