Talkin’ About Traveling

Filed under: Travel — gardener @ 1:34 am

A few days ago Marcel and I were talking about vacations. He brought up the subject, and he started asking me if I’d been to various places such as Los Angeles and the Outer Banks. I was able to say that I’d been to LA, but I couldn’t remember ever going to the Outer Banks, unless I just passed through on the way to somewhere else. I rememeber hearing alot about Outer Banks vacations when I lived in Virginia, and since then I’ve heard numerous other people talk about how beautiful it is there. He said that maybe we should go sometime. Maybe he’s right. There are so many places I want to see, I’m sure my list will never be completed.

Where is your favorite U.S. travel destination? I loved San Luis Obispo, CA and traveling up Hwy 1, plus I love Williamsburg, VA and Roanoke, VA area and the mountains. Again, there are so many places that I haven’t seen.

On to the 40’s Club

I spend the evening last night in the company of Desere, Hein and her family and friends. It was her 39th birthday, and next year she’ll join me in the 40’s club. Granted, I have a few years head start on her, but after much fretting about making it into my 40’s, I have to say that I happen to like it.

I really like her family, so it was great to see them again and have a chance to talk to them. I also enjoyed getting out and not having to think about work or anything else for a while. I think that’s the only downfall to working at home, you can always find yourself being drawn back to your work, when there are other things you should be doing as well. I’m definitely not complaining though, I love my work and wouldn’t have things any other way.

One thing I have been missing in tis little space is what I’m grateful for each day. The weeks before Thanksgiving I put things on my Facebook status, and that’s when I realized that I missed it so much, so expect to see more of what I’m grateful for, starting today.
