:) Well, western NY State. But I love NYC! Was just there about three weeks ago.

Last New Years I went back home to Memphis. Spent most of the time at my sister's cabin in the middle of nowhere in Mississippi. Prefer the city to the country though, but it's a nice place to go for vacation.

I lied before! My last vacation was at the end of April/beginning of May. I went to the southwestern part of Japan to visit my boyfriend's family.

At a farm /Inn here, high up in the mts, a few months ago...the greatest food imaginable!

A white-water rafting trip was also included..

I have the greatest photo of myself and family bucking the rapids on the Nantahala River...

Next vacation is a European cruise...

My last vacation was last July - took a little trip to Richmond to visit my daughter. She then came home for a 2 week visit. We live about 9 hrs drive from Richmond. I miss her terribly but I can be there in a day if I need to.

A (virtual) two week trek through Maine...including sampling the cuisine (delivered) and even shopping a few on the Bar Harbor shoppes online! Wonderful adventure! For 50 years I was a gypsy...traveller...now making the transition to virtual gypsy/traveller )
