I'm jealous

My oldest friend is moving to California. Right now, as we speak. And I'm jealous.

Not of her move to Beverly Hills. I'm happy for her because it's a wonderful opportun
ity, but I'm not interested in leaving the most livable city ever -- Chicago.

Instead I'm jealous of the move itself, and the road trip she's on. Last night she stayed at the Days Inn in Lincoln, NB. Tonight is a Holiday Inn in Henderson, CO. What an adventure she's having!

I've often thought it would be neat to just go to Union Station and get on the next train out, stopping in a place I've never been and spending a day or two there. Her trip reminds me that I still haven't done that.

Someday ...

  1. This reminds me that it's been a long time since the Bear and I took a road trip. Definitely worthwhile.

  2. I love just going. Luckily there are a lot of country roads around here so there are lots of little trips for me to take.

  3. I get jealous of any kind of traveling. I get very antsy when I stay in one place for too long.

  4. Road trips are awesome, and it's been way too long since we've been on one.

  5. Moving is not fun. Traveling is. My cousin will be moving from NC to OR to join her husband as soon as she can get their house sold. I offered to drive across country with her and her doggie to keep her company, take turns driving and provide safety in numbers. But really I just want a road trip!!
