I wrote my last VT tips on April 6, 2010. I just got my first votes on those tips this week (March 21, 2011) -- two, to be precise.

Used to be a time when I deliberately visited small towns to write tips for this website. Now I don't have the ambition. I barely have the interest in writing an intro page to the places I've recently seen.

I sometimes consult my old tips to relocate buildings or jot down addresses, but I can do that faster on the Web. I generally don't consult this website for other places of interest, because any more my interest is not the place but the people who live there.

As I pursue other interests, travel remains important. I enjoy and have enjoyed the experience. What I don't enjoy is the drudgery of jotting down my impressions or sizing and resizing photos to complement my opinions or stories, especially when there are 100 other identical on the same thing.

Have a memorable birthday because after a few years, that memory fades. Take pictures to recall. Have a nice day

Thanks for stopping by my small take on your hometown, Mike. Nice to see you're still kicking around here on VT, you are a blast from my past and a good one too. Love the water cooler Amsterdam piece, a classic Mr. Clay discourse.
