It has been suggested that I might in fact be crazy.
First of all, just because I willingly chose to go cross country in an RV with 7 other people doesn't automatically qualify me for the nuthouse. (Ok, I'll admit it is sort of a traveling nuthouse at times). These are my husband and kids, whose quirks I already knew, and 3 lovely Godcousins of theirs, who I've known since birth, and knew I could make miserable if they only gave me the chance (bwah ha ha). Just kidding. Who I thought would love the chance to see the country.
Secondly, if you don't take a few chances in life you don't get to enjoy some things you wouldn't have tried otherwise (Josh, pay attention here. Rafting on Saturday). And if you hate it, don't do it again. ;)
What would I have missed this time around if I wasn't crazy?
Ice cream in 6 different states (so far)
Making a fashion statement
Sniffing Ponderosa Pines that smell like vanilla, or is it caramel?
And so much more...
If this is crazy, I'm glad I'm not entirely sane.
Call me crazy, but I think I've heard you say some very similar things before too...
ReplyDeleteSigning out for a couple days. Have fun rafting (I'm glad to see that you've met back up with Josh;)
ok, guys...I didn't even know I could post a comment...you know me, the computer wiz. Dad asked me if I saw Josh's comment about being voted off, and I didn't know what in the world he was talking about!!
ReplyDeleteThe trip sounds great so far. Can't wait to see millions of pictures. Just kind of been occupied with a certain midget dynamo. More Later. Love to all.
I`m maybe not completly sane either.I love this trip even though I don`t look forward to rafting. Miriam
ReplyDeleteMaryann, you are a good role model for enjoying all that life has to offer! I should be more adventurous sometimes, but it can be difficult when you're a bookish homebody like myself. :) I will try to have some adventures on our Chicago vacation this summer. --amy
ReplyDeleteYou are brave - but look at all the cool stuff you are seeing and experiencing. We call it "making memories" in my house. Enjoy - we miss you!!
