Back in the day (before the HB), I traveled a good bit. Probably about 30% of the time. The reasons for this were a) I was trying build a nationwide business, b) I still had a lot of clients in LA (we were living near Boston at the time) and c) I didn't really like being in Boston any more than I had to be.
The guys I worked with at the time did the kind of consulting where you left town Monday morning and came back Thursday night. What boggled me was that they had young kids when they did that. I cannot imagine trying to be a dad that way. So, when my wife got pregnant I cut way back on the travel. Of course, the ever expanding internet helped me do this without hurting my business much.
However, I still have a bit of wanderlust in me. It's good to get away about once of month for a couple of days. The HB's a bit more self-sufficient now, so it's not as big of deal. Careful readers note that the HB and I have more bachelor nights (like last night) than nights when I'm on the road.
So, today I'm off to the plains to make a client presentation. The data came out as predicted, so I have good news for them (and hopefully me in terms of expanded business). I was hoping to catch a baseball game, but the forecast calls for rain. We'll see what the conditions are on the ground. The hotel where I stay has wifi, so I'll be in touch.
