I almost said "I will not be around for a while", but I thought that "Vacation Time" might be a better heading bear_whistle I will be away for a while & wanted to let you good folks know. I am leaving tomorrow afternoon (July 18th) and am taking a train trip back east to visit my family. I will be back on Aug 3rd. Hope everyone has a wonderful, happy, productive couple of week. See you all when I get back:) :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: Will miss you all.

Thanks Millie bear_original This is my first real train trip. I have been on short sight seeing trips, but never such a long trip. I don't do at all well with flying & this was the perfect answer & my wonderful son & daughter-in-law got my ticket for me!!! bear_wub

Hve a wonderful holiday, Charlotte. A train trip sounds like a lot of fun! I knew there were a lot of commuter trains, but I didn't realize you could take a train for a looong trip anymore. Guess thats what I get for living in the sticks. bear_rolleyes Stay safe and have fun!

LOL Bonnie...Thanks very much...I live in the sticks too...but my son (who is much more worldly than I am...he lives in San Antonio..)managed to find an amtrak ticket etc...for me to get back east...lol...in only 36 hours....plus a 4 1/2 +hour lay over in Chicago...both ways......and it was basically the same price as a plane ticket...and since god didn't give me wings...& I don't fly... I think it will be a real adventure :dance:
