Travel Itch

I have...

...splashed in the fountains of Rome (which is illegal, btw)
...qued at Wimbeldon

...walked through a palace made of corn
...smiled at the Mona Lisa

...dug Wall Drug
...jet skied in Barbados

...witnessed a mass ascension of hot air balloons

...slurped spaghetti in Italy
...left my heart in San Francisco (several times, actually)


...vomited over the side of a boat all day while Jared caught fish from the Atlantic
...cruised A1A Beachfront avenue

...haggled with the locals in Mexico
...wondered aimlessly through the alleys of Venice

...sat in the top of a working windmill

...touched the hand prints of Tom Cruise
...watched the sunset behind the Eiffel tower

...walked through the Gateway to the west
...sipped a Starbucks in Seattle
...camped on the shores of Lake Superior

...driven through the middle of nowhere
...tried my luck in Vegas
...window shopped on Rodeo Drive

...stood on the southernmost point in the continental U.S.A.

...been eaten alive by mosquitoes in the Everglades

...experienced the vastness of the Grand Canyon
...hugged a Palm Tree in Key West.

I have... a travel itch. Big time.
Any great and exotic yet attainable ideas?

How about Nashville and Memphis? Grand Ole Opry, Beale Street, Elvis's house ... all kinds of stuff!

Jim and I are thinking about Maine next summer. Seafood and cute rocky coastal beaches.

But if you're looking for something sooner, I hear there's a fantastic event coming up in August in Maryland, "Weekend with the Weavers."

good times! hope you can make it.

Hilliard? You could get a Mountain Dew Slushy. How many people can say they've done that??

I always recommend Victoria, BC. That's where Nick and I spent our Honeymoon. So much to do there! Plus it's close to me! so ya know....
