This blog is basically just a collection of my "random thoughts". I must warn you, though. I have been told that "I write like I talk", so if you don't understand what you are reading... chances are, if you met me... I wouldn't make much sense to you! Feel free to comment if you care to. Or not. I'm good either way!

Counting Down the Days!!

We are getting closer to our VACATION!!!

WAHOOOOO!!! I am so excited and soooo anxious to get away!! I need to escape from all of the things (and people) that are bringing me down. This Summer has been a rough one for many reasons. I wish that I could go into it all, but I really shouldn't. The less I say, the better --- apparently!

Anyway..... I haven't shared our finaly destination with you, yet!!

First... let's review all of the places that we will be going! (Photos are from various sites that had pics of vintage post cards)

We will fly to Philadelphia, PA and stay there for a couple of days.



While we are there, we plan to visit Atlantic City!


Then, we will drive to Washington DC!!


Then, we will spend a couple of days in Virginia, at David's brother's house.


NOW... you are all caught up!

Our NEXT DESTINATION will be -------

NEW YORK CITY!!!!!


I am so excited, I can hardly stand it!!!!

I know that there are SO MANY things to do and to see in NYC. I know that we can't possibly do & see them all.... but.... here are some pics of places and things that we would LIKE to do & see while we are there, if time allows!

First of all..... we plan to stay in (or at least near) Times Squre!!

It would be great if we could get a room at The Hilton Hotel in Times Square!!

    I am so pleased that you are so excited about your vacation Becky, but sorry to hear that certain things are obviously not good at the moment. Hope things will improve for you soon. I am very envious of the New York part of the trip in particular,. I have always wanted to go there and everyone I know who has been, says it is just awesome!!!! Take care. Sending you hugs my friend.
