ITCHING TO TRAVEL!

Once winter is done and I start receiving my retirement funds, I want to take some cross-country trips, both driving and riding the train. 

I would like to take my grandchildren to visit some of the most beautiful parts of this country.

Before each trip, I will give about a week's notice because I would like to get some ideas for all of you, depending on where I'm going, as to what you would like me to show you, discuss, and learn about in those particular areas. It will help me know what to write if I know what you are most interested in seeing and hearing about.

If any of you take a trip somewhere when Spring roles around, you are welcome to post about it on my blog. Just let me know and I will give you temporary author access to do so.

Train Travel Dreams

I have become OBSESSED with  a website that is OBSESSED with traveling on trains! 

 I could watch the videos from their train trips all day. I want so bad to take a trip out West on the train; I have even been looking at sleeping cars and prices, which are way beyond my budget. But I am hooked on the idea of traveling by train to visit Tucson again, as well as attending the Renaissance Fair near Phoenix, AZ in February next year. I don't know if I'll be able to hold out that long! But, most likely my income will lay that issue to rest.

If ever I can afford to go across the country, you all can share my crazy dream of bookin' around the country on the train. After that...maybe a cruise or two. I also want to take another 2-week trip on old Route 66. I promise I'll take you all along with me when I go (if I go).

 DREAM BIG OR...NEVER GO BACK TO SLEEP AGAIN!
