Places I've been
Busy compiling a list of when I was where
This blog has been running for a while, but I've recently been going back through thirty years of trips to get everything written up properly. This post is a running index — a list of everywhere we've been, year by year, with links as posts get written. Some of these already have full write-ups; others are placeholders waiting for the words to catch up with the memories.
