Would have taken an epic journey from New Mexico to Seattle that way last April. But the thing I was going to attend in Seattle got cancelled by mid-March, and so the journey got cancelled. Hopefully it will happen next year.

A couple of friends of mine have already booked a long train trip several months from now.

I love to travel, and do as much as I realistically can. I am so looking forward to resuming my trips.
