Back on the Stick, Island Style

Sometimes, it takes a moment of pause to get one's bearings.

Or, in my case, a dive head first into the azure blue Aegean Sea and temporary abandonment of my fiscal senses -- i.e., spending Euros like they are Dollars.

To read this blog it would seem that I only go fun places and see wonderful things. Sadly, this is not the case. My last post on this site is from right after my honeymoon nearly 2 years ago. Needless to say, so much has transpired since then that it will be nearly impossible to document it all. But I will try.

In the meantime, let me say just start by writing that the Greek Islands are about as close to heaven as I have come in this life. Allow me to share this little slice of heaven, the view from the patio here at the Hotel Cheladonia on the island of Santorini, or Thira as is known to the locals.
