Have Uniform, Will Travel

Mailed off my poem "Pioneer Square" to the Seattle Review, in the hopes they'll enjoy a Canadian sailor's impression of the city.

There's a good chance I'll be spending time in Quebec City this summer, training for the navy and exploring with friends. I've heard nothing but good things about the city.

Since joining the navy in early 2001, the travel bug has taken hold and nestled deep. Wasaga Beach, Halifax, P.E.I., Hawaii, Seattle, Calgary - places I doubt I'd ever of visited if I'd followed graduation with a 9 to 5 office computer job.

And if you ever thought about travelling across Canada by train, definitely make the time! Wish I'd gone coach both ways though... :)
