Hello everybody, I am wanting to revitalize this account to chronicle my upcoming travels through a lens of food, culture, and literature. The name, Wherethro’ Travels, comes from one of my favorite Lord Tennyson poems, “Ulysses.”
🍀 Travel with me to Ireland in Summer 2026!
If you are interested in the trip, I am hosting an information session on Zoom on Wednesday, September 11th, at 6:15 p.m. to discuss the upcoming trip to Ireland. I hope you can come!

CAL @ South Oldham Hotdog Review:

We’re in Chicago for Champions Classic 2023. This is the most expensive hot dog to date.
Bun: 4/5 (nice and warm)
Dog: 4.5/5 (local Vienna company dog)
Toppings: -1 (no toppings)
Over all: 7.5/10
With $9.50? Doubt it.
Anderson County Families,
We are going to Austria, Germany, and Switzerland in Summer 2025! Our information meeting will be on Nov. 2nd at 6:45 p.m. in the ACHS library. We will go over the itinerary, the benefits of traveling with a group, and the price.
For the “All Beef dog”
Dog: 2.5/5 (much more substantial than its brother, too greasy though)
Bun: 3.5/5 (better integrity)
Condiments: +1 for Heinz
Overall: 7/10, the dog kept it from being really great.
I noticed at the Lou. Bats game that two of the concession stands had different hot dogs. One “regular hot dog” and one “All beef hot dog” so you know I had to get both (for my fans).
It’s been awhile but… I’m at Oldham Co. for the 8th region tournament.
Dog: 4.5/5 (Grilled perfectly, good quality dog)
Bun: 4/5 (Good integrity)
Condiments: +0 Jesse did not get any ketchup for it
Overall: 8.5:10
I’m at Lincoln Co. tonight for the Boys 12th region tournament.
Dog: 3.5/5 (Nice to have it grilled but it wasn’t kept warm well and was not an all beef frank)
Bun: 2.5/5 (literally nothing special, good or bad)
Condiments: -1 for being off brand from the bottle
Overall: 5/10
It has been a great honor to take over as Mock Trial coach and adjunct for my alma mater @GtownCollege. Our team had a great season! I am so thankful for all the hard work that my students put into the season.
We ended up going to The Met for the afternoon. It’s absolutely massive and there was no way to see everything in an afternoon. It is also a horribly contrived maze, but great fun!
Cameron and I have arrived in New York for the weekend! We don’t have a lot of plans for the weekend besides @nbcsnl tonight. It’s just great traveling for real again, even if it’s just this weekend.
Bonus review! They had Cinnamon pretzels too, I’ve never seen that at high school game so I had to try it. However, I’ve been let down. Way to chewy and odd taste.
I’m at the North Oldham for their game against Oldham County. I came in the middle of the second quarter hoping to skip the line, no chance! Longest concession line I’ve seen in awhile.
I waited just for my fans!
Dog: 4.5/5 (great quality all-beef frank, no expense spared)
Bun: 0.5/5 (broken, made it more like a sandwich)
Condiments Bonus: 0.5 (just packets of Heinz ketchup)
Overall: 5.5/10
