(by way of Detroit?) (MLA; as a job-seeker)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Among these fine destinations, New Orleans and Hershey are the two I haven&#8217;t visited before.  Obviously Louisville is still up in the air because Watson invitations don&#8217;t come out until May.  And then there is a remote possibility that we will be taking to the friendly skies for a visit to K.C. in the fall as Ph. makes applications and visits to colleges.  As I look at the list today, it makes me feel a little bit tired.  Nothing to do but get on with it, which means I should probably root around in the basement for an appropriate piece of luggage for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weather.com\/outlook\/homeandgarden\/garden\/local\/USLA0338?from=search_city\">bayou<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">min<\/span><\/span>I haven&#8217;t left town in many months.
