Have Suitcase...

...will travel!

Our suitcases are getting a work out this year. Ron and I just returned from our latest weekend trip - this one was to El Paso. Within the last year we have flown to El Paso in June for a wedding, in March for a birthday party and in May for a stage debut. Ron flew to Texas by himself in January because I got sick and I flew to Houston for Mom’s birthday at the beginning of April and then off to Oregon at the end of April for a wedding. Looking ahead now, we have plans to go to southern California in July, to Oregon in August and, hopefully, to New York City for Thanksgiving. These are all trips that we are taking because we want to be part of milestones events in our family. For me this is the best part of having an empty nest. I can't wait to see what new adventures we will have.

The only downside to all this travel is the amount of time it takes us to recuperate. That said, I'm off to bed - Gotta start resting up for the next trip!

Good Heavens, young lady, my wife and I didn't travel that much until we were retired! But look at all the Frequent Flyer mileage you are piling up!`
