It doesn't matter which way we're going to or away from home. After returning home from a long trip the last thing I want to do is get out for a few days. I usually want to stay home to recuperate a bit. One of these days, I'd like to have a small RV for extensive traveling. This way, we can pull off the road anytime to crash for a for a bit before resuming. That sounds like a good idea any how. Be safe heading back to LA!

Great baked good and organic meat. <br /><br />Stephen M had good, spot on comments about the Noone/Nirvana tunes. I just had to go with Noone...nostalgia plus vocals.

As much as I love travelling, I don't like the actual getting from place to place part. It's difficult to have to rush from place to place in an airport, find a parking spot, make sure everything's packed and on your person, sit next to strangers, deal with turbulence, and not be on solid ground. Since I'm so prone to motion sickness, I particularly dislike long car and plane trips.Carrie-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810154378449825641noreply@blogger.com
