Yours Truly hugging a tree in the Queen Ann Garden of Stirling Castle in Stirling, ScotlandMy tour of Northern England and Scotland winds up this week!
I've had a tremendous time. Most everyone has been super friendly and helpful.
A few points of order:
deltamagnet@yahoo.com or deltamagnet@facebook.com
- At this time I'm soliciting new adventures. If you are the representative of a travel bureau or own a business you would like me to visit, please email me.
- Presently, I have solid couch surfing offers from pals in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Tehama, Japan. These are my best leads for a 2012 international trip. Nearby B&Bs, upscale hostels, and unique housing situations: please ring me up! The doors are wide open and I'm in planning mode.
- I'm launching two new "ongoing series": Cafes I Have Known and Bookstores I Have Known. If your cafe or bookstore business would like to be featured in a future post, please let me know and I will arrange a visit when next I'm in your town.
- Below are some of the posts I'm organizing for the summer and fall.
I'll be folding in my promised Colorado, Wyoming, and Arizona posts also.

What no Ohio ? You are leaving out the most diverse state in the MidWest !! We are more than football and politics. I do have a hidden agenda and would like to meet up with the Frequency Hopper :-) If I can connect you with a friend in Scotland, imagine what I can do with you in OHIO LOL Peace for your day and the rest of your trip !!!

Of course, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is famously in Ohio and the Cleveland Museum of Modern Art which took a very controversial stance in the Maplethorpe exhibition that resulted in the artist being one of four stripped of his funding. Glee is set in Ohio, too...
What about Amish Country of Wayne and Holmes county Ohio? I will pass on your info to the travel gods here and see what response I can get. Locally we have The Wilderness Center and Malabar Farm where Boggart & Bacall got married plus a hidden gem called The Inn At HoneyRun. A few spots out of many around my hometown. Cleveland is just one hour and 15 minutes north with Canton (home of The First Ladies Museum)a close 27 miles. Hmm maybe I could follow in your foot steps ? :-)
There are a lot of great state tourism blogs out there - and television programs also (My pal Stephanie Klett is the host of one for the state of Wisconsin.) So, most tourism concerns have likely been approached by someone "looking for freebies" before. Introduce anyone you'd like me to visit in the future to the blog and see what they think. And then introduce us to one another! I know you know making a friend is the strongest glue.
