Here Goes Blogging...

Welcome to my new blog, “Travels With Tracie.”  It brings together two of my passions, travel and writing.  I have spent most of my career writing news stories for radio and television stations and economic development and tourism-related press releases for state government, including the Utah Office of Tourism.  I have traveled to many destinations across the United States and overseas representing Utah, including China and South America. 

Raising three kids and holding down a full-time job has left little time to catch my breath, let alone find the time for creative writing.  My oldest daughter recently graduated from BYU and is teaching school.  My son is serving a LDS mission in Oregon.  That just leaves my youngest daughter at home.  We love having a teenager around because she keeps us young and my husband and I aren’t quite ready yet to be empty nesters.  I also just switched jobs.  The change should give me a more flexible schedule and more time for service and to seek new journeys and adventures. 

I hope you will enjoy my posts as I travel through life and share my faith-based thoughts, images, and observations.  @tracieutah on Twitter
