Although I enjoy writing, I never thought of myself as a writer.  I do have ideas and I like telling stories but navigating the English language is always a challenge.  Should I write in present tense or past tense?  What voice should I use? Should it be singular or plural?  How about the pesky verb-tense agreement?

The following is a collection of my writing I have done over the years.   Some of them are longer posts I did at the end of trips I have taken recently.

The entries are not in any particular order. I often think I should find time and go back and edit them.  Maybe one day.
