Spring Cleaning

Just getting a little spring cleaning done on the blog! It was time to create my new 2010 travel and book lists and I wanted a record of 2009. I found this really great website that turns blogs into books. I'm trying to update and post all the blogs that I've started from 2009 so I can get that published and have a written (on paper) record.
