Time Flies When You’re Having Fun
It’s true. Time has been flying by, and July is almost over. I meant to post the last couple of days, but between flying home from Vegas and hitting the road to the outback of Mondovi, WI, (talk about being off the grid!) time has escaped and it’s Thursday night already. WiFi is definitely spotty and persnickety out here, so I’m glad to be able to jump in here now and say “Hi”.
This has been such a busy and incredibly fun month! I’ve been all over the map both literally and figuratively these past few weeks. I still have a lot to share about Mexico and Las Vegas, of course, and this day road tripping around the hilly back roads of my home state has been amazing and therapeutic in ways I hadn’t expected.
The past few years were tough around our house at times. We lost my mother in law, mom, brother, and grandparents. Also, our much loved dog and cat. Going back to Ellsworth, where I grew up, had become a sad thing that I had begun to dread.
But after spending the day with my family, and a lifelong friend and her family, hitting the old haunts and stirring up old memories, I am realizing it’s time to go back. Time to let all that back into my life. It’s certainly been missing. That’s for sure.
Oprah would be very proud.
I’m feeling nostalgic tonight, but also looking to the future. I’m making plans for this website, for its newsletter, and for all the subscribers I have to this blog. I thank every one of you for caring about what I have to say. I’m excited about how many new people are showing up every week to hang out and talk travel around here.
Now, I have a favor to ask. If there is anything you’d like to see on the blog, or in the newsletter, let me know in the comments. And then go sign up for the newsletter!
