#BoringTravel
For a bit more than a year, I couldn't do overnight travel; for related but different reasons, I still can't for at least a few months. In principle that means I lose my advanced Amtrak Guest Rewards status, which is maintained by travel during the year.

But:

Amtrak have just sent me an offer letting me keep my status for another year if I make two one-way trips or one round trip before 2026-02-24. I could satisfy that with a quick trip to Buffalo and back on the Maple Leaf.

Keeping status isn't that important, but it's a good excuse for a day trip.

Not this weekend, but maybe next.
