Is haiku news? Could it be? Because I’m proud to say that my haiku has been published in the most recent issue of “American Way” magazine. Granted, it’s the in-flight magazine for American Airlines, but that’s still kinda’ cool, no?<\/p>\n
There was a contest last fall to win something like 1,000,000 frequent flyer miles and and 2,000,000 Hilton Honors points. All you had to do was submit a few photos, write a haiku, and answer ten travel-related trivia questions. Obviously, I lost on all accounts – but they did publish my haiku (along with a dozen or so others).<\/p>\n
Though, now that Randy isn’t traveling, I have no way of obtaining a copy of my published masterpiece! It does appear in the online version of the magazine, but that doesn’t count. I’m published online (via this blog) every day. Print is different! Maybe I’ll need to fly somewhere this weekend just to grab an issue?<\/p>\n
Oh, speaking of travel, it’s official: Randy and I are off to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, again. Our friends offered to let us stay at their condo and Randy and I bought one plane ticket and used frequent flyer miles for the second ticket. We’ll then split the cost of just one ticket and have a bargain trip. Though, before I get excited for this April trip I should probably focus on the more imminent Las Vegas trip in less than three weeks.<\/p>\n
