MARC'S MEMOS
2-19-15
Times flies and I realize again that it has been a long time since my last post. My subject matters usually follows poems, family or travel. Because spring and summer travel is just around the corner, I start thinking about planning a trip. In fact, I have already made reservations to go to Napa Valley in California.
I am traveling this time with my son and daughter-in-law to visit the wine country. I made a similar trip quite a few years ago and am getting a chance to spend just a few days there at a different time of the year.
I am still trying to decide where I might travel this summer, and as you know, the early bird gets the worm (and the deals!) So decisions should be made soon. I love to travel, but it can be expensive so I try to make the best of my resources.
Sometimes it is not important that you go to far away or exotic places, it is the idea that you are in a different city or environment. A change of pace or climate may even be the objective. I just love to travel.
A quote by author Robert Louis Stevenson reads:
"I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move."
To put it in GoodReads terms, here is another quote:
"The world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only one page." - Saint Augustine
UNTIL NEXT TIME, TAKE CARE! MARC
