Worldwide Gordon in the 21st Century

Hi y'all,

I'm Busy. Very busy.

Not usually how it goes, but this is different. I'm preparing to embark on a 3 week vacation to China, and I have much to do. Selling my old home. Settling in my new home. Catching up with projects at work. Establishing my first blog.

Why the blog, you ask? Simple. It's an experiment for the upcoming trip. I'll also be keeping a handwritten journal, which is another first for me. And, of course, taking pictures. The photos won't be a first, but an organized approach to collecting them will be. Lofty aspirations from a person who would rather experience people and surroundings than become a documentarian.

In the next few days, I'll post the itinerary, maybe a preliminary pic or two, and a thought or two. But don't anticipate these writings to be too personal and biographical, though. I'm an engineer. Stick around anyway, since my life seems to defy prediction. Past, present, and most likely future.

Later...
G
