Guess I’m a Close-to-Home Girl … for Now!

by Carolyn

Web toys like this map below — generated on a site that lets me easily click which states I’ve visited — are why I love being a nerd.

States I’ve Visited

Not so many states, is it! I need to branch out a bit more. *penciling in some new vacation plans* You can get your own map from epgSoft.

I really didn’t realize until now that I’ve really stayed pretty much in the South, aside from one two-year span in Rochester, N.Y., for first husband’s grad school and a couple of mid-west trips for business or pleasure. Well, and a few trips to Mexico and Canada — although I’ve hardly scratched the surface there either. Hardly the road-weary U.S. citizen or the sophisticated international traveler I’d like to be!

OK. Traveling is going on my goals list. (What’s on yours?)

You’ve never been to CALIFORNIA? **sigh** We’re just going to have to change that, huh?

Heh. I fully intend to do a grand California tour someday, even if my husband persists in calling it the Left Coast. (Yeah, he’s a Republican.)

And, are you kidding? My 10-year-old already has plans to attend Pepperdyne, because:

1 - it’s on the beach.
2 - it has a women’s soccer team.
3 - It’s on a BEACH.
4 - She can study chemistry there.
5 - The beach! The beach! The beach!

She also has plans to buy a beach house in Malibu. :o) She hasn’t fully explained how she will be balancing her time winning a Nobel Prize for her work as a chemist, making the Olympics as a soccer player, and, of course, getting a KILLER tan. But I’m sure I’ll hear the details sooner or later.
