Back on December 31st, I did a post that mentioned what I did in 2008 and what I will be doing in 2009. One of those items was traveling. I stated in that post, “…with a trip planned in the first part of the year…” stating that I would reveal where this was.
Well, I leaked the details out over on my Facebook page and told a couple of other bloggers where I was going. It’s about time I revealed to the rest of my readers the destination.
Yep… Hawaii. I’ve never been there and neither has my wife. The dates we are going are:
- March 6 – 15
We are flying direct on Friday March 6th from Salt Lake City to Oahu, where we will spend two nights. Then we take a puddle jumper over to the island Kona where we will spend the remaining of our time. Then returning to Oahu via puddle jumper on Saturday March 14th, then a direct red eye flight back to Salt Lake City, arriving early Sunday morning, March 15th.
Will You Be Blogging?
Of course, to my readers, the question that comes up is: will I be blogging? And the answer is: very little, most likely in the form of a couple of posts with photos and a small blurb.
Guest Bloggers
So this means that I will need a few guest bloggers, three (3) to be exact. I already have one lined up. Catherine from Seventh Notebook has offered to guest blog during the week of March 9th.
I am needing two guest bloggers for both Sundays, which means that there will be no Snowy Sundays for two weeks in a row. I know… major crisis, but hey, where I will be, there is no snow… not a single flake. Oh, and my wife has requested I take these two weeks off from doing videos to actually be on vacation. I think most of you will understand.
If you are interested in guest blogging either of the following Sundays:
- Sunday March 8th
- Sunday March 15th
… leave me a comment below or send me an email. The posts do not have to be Snowy Sunday themed. They can be whatever subject you want. And when I say any subject, I mean ANY subject.
But wait a minute. I’ll back on Sunday March 15th. Why do I need a guest blogger? Because I will be tired and in no condition to put anything together that resembles a blog post.
Snowy Sunday Returns March 22nd
I will be back on March 22nd with an all new episode of Snowy Sunday. I will provide more details about the season ending episode of Snowy Sunday, along with discussing the return of Scooter Sunday in a future blog post.
So, just to summarize here and clear all of this up, here’s what’s happening on Banal Leakage for the month of March 2009:
- March 1st [Sunday]- all new Snowy Sunday episode
- March 8th [Sunday]- Guest blogger
- March 9th [week of]- Guest blogger – Catherine from Seventh Notebook
- March 9th [week of]- a couple of posts with photos and a small write up.
- March 15th [Sunday]- Guest blogger
- March 22nd [Sunday]- all new Snowy Sunday episode
- March 29th [Sunday]- the season finale of Snowy Sunday
Wow. Ok, take some time, digest all of that, and if you have any questions, want to guest blog or tell me how jealous you are that I’m going to Hawaii, leave a comment.
I am ridiculously jealous!
But I’ll leave the guest posting to better bloggers!!
Hey that’s the same time Karen and I are going to Cancun…. We’ll have to come back to the cold and swap tropical stories over Mojitos…. ;o)
Yeah, I’d just wanted to tell you how jealous I am that you’re going to Hawaii.
Yay! Hawaii!
I am way envious that you are going to the land of warm oceans, sandy beaches, amazing sunsets, and… well, everything else.
To be honest, I’ve never been and only recently learned about Hawaii (somewhat) through Dave2’s adventure there :).
But, I’m sure you’re going to have a blast and have lots of stories/pics to share when you get back so your readers can live vicariously through you… RIGHT?! Hehe
I am SOOOOO jealous!!
Wow! I hope it is everything you are dreaming of!
May your travels be safe… may your vog index be light…
sybil law – Well, if you change your mind, let me know.
breakaway9 – Oh yeah. that would be a nice way to help winter end it’s ugly grip on this place. Plus, mojitos.
kevin – Another jealous reader.
amber – Yeah, Dave2’s recent trip made me anxious in going. It should be fun, and of course, I’ll be blogging about it once I’m back.
beth – more jealous readers. I’m sure the trip will be good.
dave2 – Thanks, Dave.
I don’t think jealous is a good enough word. If I think of a word worthy, I will let you know:) But I hope the two of you have a wonderful time!!
Gaah! Nervous! I am not worthy! *wrings hands fitfully*
What hast thou wrought upon thy universally beloved and wonderful blog!
Gaaaah!
becky – When you find that word, come back and leave a comment. I’m a wordsmith at heart. And thanks… we’ll have a good time, I’m sure of that.
catherine -Ah… you’ll do a kick ass job.
Mmmmm, Hawaii. Mmmmm, macadamia nut pancakes.
If you need a guest blogger, I will do it. Closer to the end though since I too will be traveling on the 6th and 7th!
hilly – I will have to try those pancakes when I am there. They sound yummy. You’ve got email.
Color me in if you haven’t already filled the slots.
karl – You got it. I’ve put you down for Sunday March 8th.
Coolio. No, wait. Snoop Dog.
I hope you have a wonderful time! I cannot wait to see the photos and hear all about your travels. 🙂
I wish I was clever enough to guest blog, but I am not 🙁 I feel inadequate to your cleverness.
kilax – I sure we’ll have a great time. Who doesn’t in Hawaii? And I will be blogging about it… that’s for sure.
If you change your mind on the guest blogging, let me know. I may decide to take a longer break (hint, hint)
