Road Trip!

Last night I was watching Six Feet Under and one of the characters was having trouble at home and decided to take a road trip. My last spur of the moment road trip was back in college, 97, and I'm long over due. I've been on vacation, but just not a road trip in a while. Where was your last road trip?

Last month we drove from Dallas to Charleston SC, then down to St Augustine and Port Canaveral, FL.

We're heading out from here in NW Tennessee on Labor day for a few days.....have no plans, don't know where to go. I'd love to go to Gulf Shores, but 2-3 days isn't long enough for that kind of trip. The Smokies is a possibility (a cabin up in the mountains with a hot tub, fireplace), but we do that every year and it's getting old. We could go to Memphis and get our car broken into......or Branson and see that Shoji Yammawhatchamacallwhositz.

Did a great road trip last month......first Las Vegas and Margaritaville, then Pheonix to visit family. Then we hung out on some Indian Reservations - Apache, Zuni and Laguna, so fun. Bought turquoise jewelry, handmade pottery and cool cowboy hats. We camped outside Santa Fe several days, then went up to Taos. I picked out our hotel because it had the coolest name (Sagebrush Inn), and its bar, it turned out, is renowned for really good live music every night. Good music in the plaza, too. People really know how to dance in that town. We spent a day at the Taos pueblo on a ceremony day - there were only about 30 visitors there, couldn't believe it. Very wonderful.

We drove back to CA on Route 66 - talk about the ultimate Road Trip!
We stayed in the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook, AZ......... check it out............www.galerie-kokopelli.com/wigwam. Alot of Route 66 runs alongside Route 40 but there are a few 100 mile-long sections of beautiful, empty two-lane road that really takes you back in time.

Nothin' like a Road Trip!

I am going to go by air - firstly to the Sunshine Coast north of Brisbane of the PH benefit night that will have Eric Stone from Florida performing for us. Then fly to Cairns to visit my brother and his family ...... maybe go out for a day sailing on the reef .. who knows

(It is only a 1hour flight to brisbane, then a 2 hour flight to Cairns - not that far!)

Sounds great! I'd like to do a similar trip on a motorcycle. I'll be leaving for a family reunion Labor Day Weekend in Surfside, SC. I'm really looking forward to that.
