My wife threw together this map of our upcoming itinerary.

People typically ask one of two questions about this trip.  What’s in Peru? Or, are you going to Machu Picchu?

To answear those questions:  What’s not in Peru?  And yes, we’re going to Machu Picchu.

With that said, I’d like to let my adoring fanbase know that I’ll be back shortly.   The going may be rough for you the next few days.  Your daily dose of lively Murtaughtainment will be drastically reduced until Sept. 26, at which time all shenanigans will proceed.

You may even find that you now have time to spend with your family, finish that puzzle, draw a pretty picture, or plan a trip to Peru.  Clearly a win-win for all.
