Travel
We are – let’s be honest, pretty fortunate folks. We have stuff and opportunities available to us that others do not. To me, the ability to travel is incredible. I hope I never get used to it, never assume that it’s my right to be able to. After reaching the age of 50 and never having gone to Florida, I’m going twice in one year. This fall I hope to go to the Western Caribbean. My kids have been in Europe, Hawaii, and elsewhere. Though I don’t remember it all, as a child my family traveled to most of the “lower 48.” I love my home and my job, but I also love getting away from both. Whenever you think you’re broke, think about where you’ve been able to go and what you’ve been able to see. I think that’s terrific.
