It’s been far too long since I last posted here — I’ve been really busy on other fronts. But summer is here, and I’ll be getting back on the road soon. I am really looking forward to that prospect.

I’ll also include travel alerts from the US State Department that mention passport issues, and other items of interest.

Each blog post that contains travel news will have this preamble:
