Greetings from Victoria BC!

We finally pulled into port this evening in Victoria, British Columbia. Unfortunately, we didn’t dock until nearly 7:30pm. Otherwise, I might have toured the Neverblue facilities and met up my affiliate manager. In any event, we made the two-mile trek downtown, and checked out the local shops. It’s a cute town, and my wife loved [...]

Greetings from Ketchikan!

After 5 days of perfect weather, our luck finally ran out. We pulled into port at Ketchikan, and it was POURING! Thankfully, we didn’t have any plans for this port of call, so we just walked around town for a bit. Another little town with a bunch of touristy shops to cash in on the [...]

With global warming, who knows how long we really have until all the ice melts away! So the wife did some research, and we ended up choosing a Holland America [...]

Affiliate.com Rocks!

A few weeks ago, Affiliate.com sent Shoemoney a shirt that was a play on the Affliction style shirts, and I just had to have one! Brit from Affiliate.com hooked me up with a shirt of my own, and I can’t thank her enough! I have a pile of freebie shirts that I rarely wear, but [...]
