Lurked for a while and then started posting when I had something to contribute. Thanks to FT for all the advice I have gotten recently.

In August, I started a job that requires extensive travel, mostly short segment stuff in the midwest but an occasional trip out to the home office in Portland. Life got easier once I achieved Platinum status on AA, thanks to the information I got here. I was able to sign up for a Platinum challenge in October and now trying to figure out how I am going to get EXP in '09.

I am in the wine business so I also eat and drink out all the time. It would be nice to meet some fellow road warriors and share a glass or two. Minneapolis, Detroit and Cleveland in January....
