When I
first started writing about my travels, I was creating a page for
each trip. Then I started putting several of the "smaller"
trips together in one page. Now there are so many of these that it
is sometimes hard to locate a specific report. This index provides
links to these individual sections of multi-trip reports. It's
intended primarily for my own use, but anyone who runs across it is
welcome to make use of it.
