Jeanne's Travels

Jeanne's Travels was a column that Jeanne Armonk wrote for The Wilkes Gazette from 2009 to 2012.  

The column highlighted pet-friendly places North Carolina.  In particular, the focus was in the Wilkes County area, however Jeanne wrote about places as far as the Outer Banks (OBX) on the Atlantic coastline.  

Jeanne traveled to these places with her dog Red.  Red has a photo gallery tab above along with a few highlights of some of his adventures with Jeanne during the 11 years they spent together.

This allowed Jeanne to write first hand experiences in regards to the varying rules and regulations pertaining to dogs and their owners.  In particular, the rules and regulations at many pet-friendly areas such as reservoirs, dog parks, and outdoor events.

They also traveled to tourist sights wherein they would stay at pet-friendly hotels. The experience gave Jeanne the opportunity to begin travel writing both in general, and with emphasis on travel with pets.

My interest with writing began by composing poems about nature in my childhood. I also co-wrote a play in my 4th grade class when I lived in New Rochelle, NY. It generated enough positive feedback that my class put on the play in the school auditorium. I was fortunate to have a lead part. After my high school graduation, I entered the working world. For over 30 years I have been steadily gaining writing, editing and digital publishing skills. I began by composing letters and emails to company clients. I contributed to articles written for The Commuters Register based in Windsor, CT. Since 2009, I have added social media, digital publishing and blogging here in Wilkesboro, NC. Since 2010, I write ad copy for the listing descriptions for each of my 3 Internet shops open at Etsy.com. In 2012, I entered a poem about my dog Red in the World Poetry Contest. The poem was chosen for publication. I have written articles for the Winston-Salem Frugal Living Examiner and Hub Pages. In 2012, I acquired The Wilkes Gazette digital newspaper that was renamed the Wilkes County Gazette in 2014. I write under both my own name and my pen name, Jeanne Armonk.
