Hello traveling Friends!

Happy 2026!

Welcome to my Travel Blog page, "Travel With Tod," at Cornerstone Travel Group. 
For over 30 years I have been in the travel and tour industry. For 23 of those years, I founded, owned, and operated my own tour company based in St. Louis, Missouri. In January 2024, I decided to retire from full-time travel and spend more time with my family and enjoy a slower pace.

In 2025, I was invited to join the Travel Board here at Cornerstone - a travel group that comprises individual and retired travel industry leaders/professionals as well as historians/authors and wellness experts.  It was an opportunity too good to pass up—to be involved and collaborate with some of the most dynamic and energetic travel consultants in the region (some I have known and worked with for years and new partners I am proud to unite with). 

Being a part of Cornerstone is allowing me to once again share my group travel expertise, experiences, and colleagues/contacts. Everyone at Cornerstone Travel Group is committed to creating great travel options, destinations, and budget-minded itineraries—with the motto of "travelers uniting travelers."
