I'm blessed

Today I got to thinking about how I had a nice childhood. We always went on little excursions, outings and vacations. My mother doesn't fly on planes, so we would drive everywhere. I wasn't the luckiest of the lucky who got to experience life overseas, but I had fun going the places we went.

Port Royal in Port Aransas

Vegas; Bally's and Paris

Disney World

Red River

An A-frame in Ruidoso
We would go to the same places. . . Red River, Ruidoso, Port Aransas, Disney World. . . then when we got older we would go to Vegas regularly. We'd go shopping in Austin and Dallas and stay overnight at Salado and play in the creek.
I was thinking about some people around me and how I don't think they are able to go on vacations. I felt sorry for them and their children. They work too much or don't have the funds.
I came away feeling extremely BLESSED today.
The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs

I suppose I thought about traveling because I just got back from flying to Midland for a long weekend last week. I'm going to fly to Colorado next weekend. And, I've been asked if I'd like to live in Mexico for a year. Hell Yes! But, I need about $20,000 for that, so I don't think that is going to happen. Boo!
