I know, I'm posting twice in one day...

Just thought I would tell you about last night...Stacey and I were on the phone together while we watched Jon and Kate plus 8...they are in Hawaii..
So, here is our problem...we are planning another vacation together this summer...not a problem..oh, yes it is!!! Well, we enjoyed So. Calif. sooo much, we are comfortable going there, know our way around...have places to go, that we missed last summer, we just want a different Hotel, the swimming pool was in the shade in the late afternoon...
So, we're watching Jon and Kate, and we say...maybe we should go back to Hawaii, it has been 15 years, it would be sooo relaxing. RELAX, that is the key word. We dont go on vacation to relax..we want to see things, experience things, try out new things...so...Lets go to NEW YORK...
During all of this, my hubs is in the living room watching the cmt awards..I would yell out...WE THINK WE"RE GOING TO HAWAII TO RELAX..he's like, ya, ok, thats great..
Then it was on to...NO,WE"RE GOING TO NEW YORK, then I had to confess to Stacey that I was terrified of going to New York by ourselfs...so much so I think I talked ourselfs out of going...then she came up with this one...Racheal Ray said Montreal was like going to Paris...so I checked to see how much it was to get a passport, then looked on line...Its a REALLY big city too. ,So, I'm thinking NO... Stacey loves the beach...Lets go to So. Carolina...shes like...then lets go to the Hamptons. LOLOLOL. So, this morning my Hubs talks to Stacey...WHERE are you guys going on vacation??? We Laughed and Laughed...WE DON"T KNOW
Any ideas where we should go???
I am soooooooo excited. Sometimes I get a little sad when I think no one is looking at my blog, not that it is a great blog...but, I do put time and effort to put things on to share...

So, I started my traffic feed. oh my goodness!!! There are LOTS and LOTS of people coming by to visit!!! Whoo hoo!!! I Love it!!
Now...does anyone know how to take off my music...I'm tired of it, dont know how to make it go away?? lol.

I vote for Washington State, then you could head up to Victoria, B.C and got o tea at the Empress (if you wanted to) and the last time I was there, there were so many cute shops with linens and tea stuff. Also they have the Buchart gardens (google it, it's fantastic!)in Washington yo have the space needle and the beach. So much to do!

Went to NYC for the first time last year...(we live in UPSTATE New York, totally different world)...it was nice. One teen, three women. We paired up. We did okay! I would have had a totally different agenda. VERY fast paced, but I suppose all cities are. LOVE the shows. Nothing like LIVE on Broadway...I could have spent the entire time going from musical to musical & it would have been perfect. I'm not one for walking like cattle everywhere you go...elbow to elbow. However, this country girl felt safe.
Have fun choosing a destination!
Hope you have an fantastic vacation!

How about a cruise? Go somewhere more exotic than Hawaii :)

And oh look... the United States is reading your blog too. That's so weird... who is that?

Unknown said...

WOW! I like the idea of a cruise, too! The hotel goes with you and you get to go to different places, it's a like a location salad bar of sorts...LOL!

I don't have a suggestion other than once you choose your destination, just enjoy yourself. I love your blog and all your creations.

Cruise, South Carolina beaches, Victoria, BC....loved every single thing about every one of these vacations! Haven't been to NYC or Montreal; but, I'm sure you and Stacey will have a ball no matter where you go! Good luck with your choice!

Laurie,Just popping in to tell you I got your package and I love it! How lucky I am! I am having camera issues and probably am going to buy myself a NEW camera today! Oh and about vacation...our Favorite spot in this whole wide world is St. John in the U.S. Virgin islands...best beaches in the world!

Ha ha. Sometimes you have to have vacation to recover from vacation. :)

Cassie said...

Well I have to agree with Lady Janes' Emporium! St. John is the best place in the world (but don't tell anyone else)! I am on my way over to check out Lady Jane now, STJ fans are like that! I read your blog every time you have a new post! Good luck, you'll have a great time where ever you choose!

Laurie;
I know what you mean when you say no one is reading..I just went through that feeling myself. I got the suggestion of adding a counter and it perked me up, too. Plus I got some really kind words from some of my readers. I just started a couple of months ago. As I am writing this you already have 14 comments. Now you have 15!
