Kent St. Viking

OK - it's now gone from egregious to obscene--the faithful updating, of course. Who better then to get things back online than the very pater nostra of this humble site, travel maven Kent St. John? Kent and I first met in the customs line at Keflavik Airport in Iceland this past May, the commencement of a week-long trip through southern Sweden and southern Finland together. While I have been saving my report of that journey for rainy day blogging, here now I must remember the great merriment shared with Kent, while also acknowledging that seeing his daily blogging in action was indeed the inspiration for Beth and I to start this site. Kent is a senior editor of the well-established Go Nomad site while also lending his considerable talents to the world of travel radio. As the photo shows, he is fond of living out his Viking fantasies while on the road. If you visit his site and see his post of today, you will also note the corpulent fellow next to Abba number five; while I cannot deny that is me, I can assure you that I am slimmer by far today.
