Hammocks is a sweet little resort. I hope the weather (and everything else) complies and you have a great time.

I am sooo glad to hear that! Use it, use it, use it! Our dogs loved motorhome, seemed disappointed when they had to ride in cars...

Three weeks at WorldMark St George just like last year and just like my reservation for next year.

Covid-19? What's that?

Our weekend trip to the Allegheny Nat'l Forest region in PA was a success. Though it was a bit chilly, the sun shone brightly on both Friday & Saturday. We played 18 holes at a friendly and scenic golf course- Jackson Valley- where I was able to warm up at the turn with a hot apple cider laced with caramel whiskey. The next day we hiked at the Kinzua Bridge State Park and enjoyed the views from the Rimrock overlook and at the bottom of the Kinzua dam.

We stayed at the Hampton in Warren. We made our own lunches and for dinner ordered take-out for dinners from the Plaza and Ribs n'Bones since we didn't want to risk indoor dining.

Enroute home Sunday we detoured south to get to the Grove City Outlets where DH & I had shopping successes.

Mask wearing was prevalent, even hiking; however, crowd size appears to be of concern in PA. We thought we might golf on Sat when we passed by a course- there was some tyoe of party going on in the clubhouse with many, many people many of whom were maskless as they were imbibing. And as we passed several taverns on our way home Sunday during the Browns/Steelers game, parking lots were full suggesting that the interiors were too.

I’m on an epic 8 day road trip currently with my daughter and dog. Drove 1000 miles over the weekend. Enjoying new sights while fitting in work and online school. Not my ideal way to travel but still having fun.

We are flying to Atlanta on Friday to meet our adopted daughter who is 8. We will be staying at a Residence Inn for 4 nights for the transition period. Then we are going to St Simons Island on the Georgia coast for a week while we wait for the state to give us approval to bring her back to California.

Congratulations. Like they say, if a child is to keep alive their inborn sense of wonder, they need the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with them the joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in.

But then, I think you know that. ;)

A nice surprise of mild weather in the northeast this week, so we're using some of our Wyndham points in Atlantic City.

Plan a Halloween weekend in Seattle. Traveling on Alaska that has all Middle seats blocked. Planning to wear face shields.

Then have plans for Nuevo Vallarta at Vindante resort for Christmas. They are open and so far its a go. They send emails of how they are protecting the public. Had a week in May in Cancun that I had to cancel. The resort charged me for the cancelation even with the Covid issues.

Nice!! How was it? and how is the weather these days?
We lucked out with great weather. Wonderful time, golfing and outdoor rural was unseasonably warm, since we have been home, it’s gotten cool and rainy in Virginia. Nice to catch last bit of summer and social distance wasn’t to hard to do. Join Tug and read my review of The Pines.

Doing a 19-day driving vacation/work tour right after Christmas...Orlando / Palm Beach / Hilton Head. We're going to mix in some off days and some work/college days. Will likely put over 2K miles on the car, which wouldn't be much more than I have so far this year LOL.

Day trip to Baltimore tomorrow to qualify for the temporary Southwest Companion Pass. I’ll use it in January for trips to Orlando and Steamboat Springs.

Cheers

I am currently in Baton Rouge & visited the Museum of Rural Life today. Has anyone ever been there? Wow - was it a great place to visit .

I have visited that museum as I live in Baton Rouge! We visited the museum several years prior to our move to Baton Rouge. Welcome to Louisiana! Are you here long?

Thank you! We have been in BR for about 3 days and heading out tomorrow . My daughter is applying to LSU so we came to check it out. I have never been to this part of the country before so this is all completely new to me. The museum really touched me for some reason. It's so well done.

The trees here are GORGEOUS. I could not stop admiring them on our LSU tour.

Heading out tomorrow morning to drive to Tuscaloosa via New Orleans.

(people here are REALLY nice)

BTW, we are Alivia's ninth family. She had 5 families by age 16 months plus her bio mom (6 families total). Then she was adopted at 16 months and had that family until she turned 6 (family #7). She has been in this family for 2.5 years (family #8). She is 8 and we are her 9th family. She has had a tough childhood. We are committed to her and we will be her forever family no matter what happens.

As adults, we hate change and love it at the same time. When our emotional stability is based on what other people do or do not do, then we have no stability.

All a child wants is something they can get hold of that's firm and sure and an anchor in the midst of all of this instability in which they're living. Thank you for being that anchor. :clap:

Oh, how sad for her and what a challenge for you but it sounds as if you are experienced re your work with young people, determined to succeed and prepared! Best wishes, congratulations and thanks for accepting her into your home and hearts.
