After all the travel I did this year I'm going to hop on Kottke's meme. Long story short, I had to endure airport security way too many times. There was a time when I was flying an average of two flights every week. That said, Jared "Travel Machine" Spool made my flight schedule look like a series of grade school field trips. Still, I've got enough free drink coupons to last for a long, long time and a handy A-List Membership card that lets me jump to the front of the line for Federal Flight Safety Processing Happy Fun Time.
Here is a list of the places I traveled to and stayed in for one or more nights in 2009.
Aliso Viejo, California 1
Emeryville, California 1
Palm Springs, California 2
Palo Alto, California

Walnut Creek, California 2

Sadly, I wasn't able to make my annual trip to Las Vegas in November—a problem I hope to remedy not too long after New Years.

My list is pathetic this year.
Whoa whoa, you came to Eugene? For what? Last I checked we don't hold any awesome web shows (except for "insert cheesy web-foot related Duck football joke here").
Definitely would have been a pleasure to meet you and show you around. Hope you enjoyed our town!
Philip, I was in town to meet with a client. If I'm there again I'll let you know.
Greg neglected to mention the Southwest Airlines Companion Pass (that he is now a holder of) that his wife earned last year for commuting between Nor Cal and So Cal each week. The month of September was magical - it was my first airline free month since January 2008.
Here's to 2010!
