Good afternoon, Michael, and welcome to go-lo! It's wonderful to have a journalist of your background and experience with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.

You may want to take a few minutes to join several of our many groups which you might find of particular interest besides "Travel Media Only," such as Arkansas, Cuba, Russia, Travel Photography, Eating/Drinking the World, and more. You can also add a box to your profile providing additional info about yourself, including text (such as your web site URL), photos, and even video.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, and colleagues. We wish you a great rest of the summer, and look forward to hearing more from you!
