An Unexpected, But Brilliant Idea

As noted in my last few blogs, we have agonized over what to do with our vacation (which starts Monday). My Maggy had a brilliant idea... and that was unexpected. Ok, not that she never has brilliant ideas ... but that this idea is uncharacteristic of her. And me. We've decided not to make any plans. That's right. We will head for a state line, stop at the welcome center, get the materials available, and hit the road. While there are positives and negatives to this plan, the major positive is that we now know that we are going on an adventure and we look forward to whatever lies in our path. If you are getting visions of the Griswald's on their way to Wally World, don't worry. I have the same nightmare. BUT ... in this case the plan is no plan ... and I will have a lot of fun planning to blog about the places we stopped. It is an existential vacation ... the only true destination will be the one that is just before us.
