Good thing we did it as we went along because by retirement years he was no longer able to travel. So, enjoy it now as never know what future may bring. We weren't interested in fancy hotels and gourmet meals either but this was before Air B& B though. joaredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999395062839739698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248452688088218010.post-78591368840903390352017-03-11T15:55:54.676-05:002017-03-11T15:55:54.676-05:00Change is good and fun - temporarily!Change is good and fun - temporarily!Meryl Baerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13482532818278685217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248452688088218010.post-50620699821908481852017-03-11T15:54:59.949-05:002017-03-11T15:54:59.949-05:00I think we will be spending more time in one place...I think we will be spending more time in one place in the future, just different places each winter.

It is awful nowadays - something to endure to get where you want to go. <br />Good luck driving north. I-95 is the worst road. Too many trucks. I realize it is great for the economy, but makes driving stressful.Meryl Baerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13482532818278685217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248452688088218010.post-86888339156272333482017-03-11T15:49:54.693-05:002017-03-11T15:49:54.693-05:00I also am not fond of packing.

We just miss them, if we are gone too long. and we are not ready to live life without animals. I like extended weekend trips better than big long trips. I also hate to pack. I'd rather throw a few things in a small carry on, and then shop for the rest of the stuff - and then send it all home. Debby https://www.blogger.com/profile/02574297621214864538noreply@blogger.com
