In approximately 3 weeks, I'll be taking a trip with my sister to visit our mom in Oregon. I can't wait! I haven't had a trip in such a loooong time. Before we bought our house, my husband and I would occasionally take little mini-trips with our dogs to fun places like Santa Barbara... We did it in part to get away from a loud upstairs neighbor. These days, we have quiet and serenity in abundance... Our home is a wonderful retreat, and neither one of us has been particularly motivated to get away... That is, until now!
Knowing that I'm less than a month away from starting the nursing program has renewed my desire to take a vacation-- I have to do it while I can.
The reason my sister and I are heading up to Oregon is to attend a live showing of Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion" with our mother.... All three of us are public radio fans and occasional listeners of the program, so when our mom found out that the the show would be taping at the outdoor concert venue not far from where she lives, she couldn't resist the opportunity to get tickets. Awesome!
A fringe benefit is that I get to visit my Airstream trailer. I'm so excited! I just spent $250 at Vintage Trailer Supply for "weather tighting" supplies, including silicone window glazing, two replacement window operators, and two ceiling vent covers. I don't know when I'll have time to work on it in the few days that I'll be there, but I'll do my best to make time!
