Down Time

Twenty thousand miles later and following a successful rescue trip of my son from Canada - I may have some down time. At least as far as travel goes.

Today I take my husband to the airport as he is headed to Michigan for about a month and then I attack the storage unit.

Hopefully I will find time to go thru & edit all the photos but to be honest with everyone it may have to wait till the first of the new year. There is a strong possibility that a move to the Southwest is in our immediate future and that will have to take priority. Once all plans are finalized I’ll be able to update here.

Have a good one!

Postponed

All updates will have to wait - have to make an emergency trip back up to Washington State.

Hotel Hell

“Hotel Hell” just started on television - haven’t caught an episode yet since we’ve been on the road since June.  Since my husband is a Hotel Consultant - it seems pretty relevant as we have been dealing with our own version of “Hotel Hell” for years - but never like this summer….

Returned…

Got back from Martha’s Vineyard late last night.  Will update photos and info when I get a chance.  For the record - road trip to the Vineyard from theMmidwest and back in 6 days - a little much ;)

Martha’s Vineyard

Still on the island - three meetings lined up today and then we are scheduled to catch the ferry back to Woods Hole.  I probably won’t be able to update about the trip until we are back at our mother’s house - but I am trying to grab as many pics with my iPhone as I can while I’m here and I’ll share those when the  trip is over.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! 

Stopped for the night in the Finger Lakes region of NY and am enjoying the best bath of my life.

Is it a huge garden tub in a luxury suite? NO.

Is it a large tub with tons of jets to make my water bubble, you ask? NO.

What is it that makes it so perfect?

The fact that I was exhausted and sweaty and wanted it so badly is what makes it perfect.

After all abstinence is the best aphrodisiac and hunger the best appetizer.

It’s all ALWAYS relevant.

On the Road (again)…

So our summer road trip which is a basically a business trip that we’ve decided to have some fun on, has turned into officially a “Coast to Coast” trip.

The call came through Saturday night and plans were confirmed on Sunday that ended up sending us to Martha’s Vineyard off the coast of Massachusetts.  We left yesterday (it was a quick packing situation as we were already planning to head to Florida today) and spent last night on the Indiana / Ohio border.

Hitting the road again in a few hours and I’ll grab some photos with the iPhone as we travel.  

I feel a little odd as my mother talked me into leaving both the dog and cat with her while we make this fast trip so now for the first time in almost 30 years I have no kids and no pets with me as I travel.  Very odd sensation - almost like going back in time and doing those old “road trips” I made as a kid all over again.

It’s really strange to repeat an event in your life that makes you realize how different a person you have become.  Almost like going back in time to look in the mirror and see who you will be in the future.  Very strange…

New Travel Orders…

New travel plans being formed now.  At this point I’m not sure if we are heading to the Deep South or way back up to the North East.  Should have things finalized tomorrow.  Haven’t even managed to get the photos from Texas up yet since I’ve been visiting family, maybe I’ll have some downtime on the road and get that finished.

Updates within the next couple of days.  Very curious to see which direction we head.

Visiting Family…

I’m currently back in Southern Illinois checking in on my mother & family.  We have a few “down days” before we have to decide on “What Now?” so we thought we would spend it visiting our folks.  Today we rest and then this week we get the car checked out again (over 8,000 miles put on her in the last few weeks - WOW) and make our future plans!!

I’m going to take a few days off from here but I may be updating my regular “arts”  tumblr while relaxing and catching up on the news - other than that, it’s simply “do nothing” for a while.

Talk to y’all soon!!!
