Timid Beginnings

R&E Sussex NYC March 2014

Greetings and welcome to my blog, Letters from Atlantis. My initial intention here is to stay in communication with friends and family while I travel with my husband during the months of Roger’s academic sabbatical. So, the opening chapters of the blog will be entitled “Tales of the Trailing Spouse.” I’ll chronicle where I am, who I’m with, and what I think of it all. There will be photos, too. You—the folks I’m comfortable talking to—can check up on what we’re doing. Or you can ignore it.

You may find that it takes me some weeks to figure out the formatting and editing. Plus, I have no idea if any of it will be interesting.

The idea is growing on me, however, that there’s the potential for more than a travel log in this blogging business. So Letters from Atlantis may become an outlet for personal reflections and memoirs. Or not. I’ll have to see how it goes. . .

For now, dear friends, you are invited to join me on my journey.

    I am so happy that you are embarking on this project, Eileen. From the confines of my apartment I will travel with you and Roger. I am totally delighted to be on the road with you two wonderful people. Thank you for this fabulous opportunity.
    Love, Pat
