Trailers
Summer hasn't officially arrived yet, even though the temperature topped off at 93 yesterday around here. Many people are making their summer travel plans. Going here. Going there. I've been to Oneonta, NY but never to Chattanooga. Maybe someday. I've traveled to the West Coast a few times. Been back and forth through the Midwest on numerous trips. Got to know the New York Truway like the back of my hand. Have ventured up and down the East Coast and been all over New England, but the part of the country that I've spent little time in has been the Deep South. With the exception of Florida, I've vacationed in none of those states. I've driven through a few, but that's about it. If I ever retire, some people say I will someday, the Carolinas seem enticing. East Coast, near the water, mostly comfortable temperatures... there's a draw there. Mom and Dad never moved away from Maine but for totally different reasons. Mom never got the chance. Dad? It never, EVER entered the man's mind.
Me?
Right now?
I just don't know.
Maybe I could get a job as one of those comedians on a cruise ship...
I'm a good dreamer.
how could you even think of leaving that beautiful home of yours?
ReplyDeleteThe day we leave our home will be one of the saddest days of my life...
ReplyDelete....but, the winter's are just too dang long and dangerous for a, ahem, senior citizen. ;-/
Senior what???????? Shut your mouth woman! hahahaha
DeleteYou two are a treat. Enjoying your days together, no matter the location--that's what you'll continue to do, I'm sure.
DeleteI think I'd be happy to be traveling all the time.
ReplyDeletelaughing at you and elenka. :)
ReplyDeleteKeep dreaming, though I'm with you on moving to where the winters are milder and the summers are not too hot. You don't get seasick, do you?
ReplyDeleteI would travel 365 days if given the chance and even 366 every 4 years.
ReplyDelete... yet home is where my heart is.
DeleteJust become a snowbird, elenka and birdman...I hear a lot of seniors are doing that these days!
ReplyDeleteDon't sell the farm yet! I'll be coming up in July!
Lakeland Checks In!
You don't speak about Alaska and Hawai?..
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!!! Dream away---see you made me laugh. Watch out for the lounge comedian on the cruise ship.
ReplyDeleteIt is still Spring here with rain and some warm temps (high 60s maybe 70) between the rain drops. beautiful though. MB
You should visit PEI and find all of the Gallants that are still there!
ReplyDeleteThe life of a traveling comedian doesn't sound attractive. Always just one bad joke away from unemployment, and alway a need to have a speedy wit. Just go spend a long weekend in Chattanooga and see if you want to come back for more.
ReplyDeleteI so enjoy your musings about things, Birdman. All this from a few U-Haul trailers!
ReplyDeleteA week, or two, in N'awlins would be worth your time :)
ReplyDeleteThe DeepSouth is different and delightful. Might not be a bad choice.
ReplyDeletesaw quite a bit of the usa during my time here... amazing country! :) would not mind to make it my dayjob... just traveling around...
ReplyDeleteOnce school gets out you see these all over the highway.
ReplyDeleteIf you do leave, I bet you'll end up returning to beautiful Maine. . .
ReplyDeleteYou would move from your Dear Maine Home??? Maybe you can do the Comedy Club here! I'd come to see you!
ReplyDeleteCrazy weather this year, you up there at 93 deg. and we are in southern OH and have only had one day until today of barely over 80. Today, humid and 88....touching 90 in some parts according to the weather people.
