The Maine Event

Hello world, and welcome to something I’ve been wanting to do for a while. Something that has never been done before. A blog.

It’s just going to be a place where I keep my thoughts and post updates about what all is going on. It’s mostly for family and friends, but open to whomever wants to read it. Or is it whoever?

Anyways.

I guess one thing that would make sense is to give a little background info as to what this is and all that -

My name is Garrett and I have been working in the tire/auto industry for the last decade. I have also been taking photos for a while, but have really only been investing the majority of my time in it for the past few years. Right around the start of 2021, my wife decided to make the leap from staff nurse to travel nurse, and asked if I wanted to travel with her. Tired of my job at the time and facing serious burnout, I quit and started travelling with her, along with our dog and cat, Pancakes and Syrup.

We usually end up in a new area every 3-6 months and travel the surrounding areas while there. I plan on using this space as a way to share about the things we see and do, the places we eat, and other things that other travel nurses (or other travelling professionals) may want to see or do while they’re on contract. If this is something that interests you, feel free to let me know!

For now, it’ll be a bit quiet until we get set up, but as for an update, we are now located in Bangor, Maine! We plan on checking out the parks and coasts in the area as soon as it warms up a little bit. Looking forward to the vast food choices as well! Be on the lookout for some updates in the future.

As for now, I guess this is it? How do you sign off from these anyway?
