Travel now

There were so many reasons why people do not travel. First, they count the monetary cost. Secondly, it takes time away from the aspects of life that cry out for priority. Third, we can do it "some day".

We traveled widely in the Unites States and Canada when we were first married and then with our children. We began to go on extensive trips to the Eastern Seaboard and South when our children could benefit from the adventures. After the kids got out of college we thought it was time to head out of the country and especially to Europe. During college, our daughters each spent time abroad: in England and in Argentina.

At sixty we started our major trips outside the United States. First to England and Scotland, then to Ireland and Italy. We have had some wonderful times and met interesting people. Of late we have had to put plans on hold due to health issues and hope soon to get back on schedule. We are now able to afford the money and time. "Some day" has come upon us and we hope it lasts.

Our message to others is: do it now. Some day may never come or go away too quickly.

There is lots to see.
