Go with all your heart
I'm celebrating my 10th Blogiversary on the First Day of Spring, with the St. Patrick's Day observance of 9 years Quit (Smoking) along the way! To mark the occasion, which totally blows my mind, I thought I'd share TEN for TEN.
SIX - TRAVEL*
I've been fortunate over the past 10 years to do some traveling.
There have been lots of jaunts around Wisconsin -- "up north" to the lake, to visit my sister Karen, to explore Lake Superior; Madison area to visit my sister Ann; Door County for day-trips, and for bike rides & beer festivals; Marshfield, Milwaukee, Lake Geneva.
Into Michigan, Minnesota, and Iowa, as well as some jaunts down to Chicago.
To Las Vegas with Sharon.
To San Francisco for my birthday.
To the U.K.
And to Rio de Janeiro.
Some of those places -- especially the U.K. and Rio -- were barely in my dreams 10 years ago! You just never know where your kids are going to end up going to school or where your sister's going to move for her job! I can't wait for the next 10 years... now that I have a passport, I wouldn't mind using it some more!
