My favorite vacation/activity: Just being home and having the ability to run an errand, make a hair appointment, or just hang around the house all day. : ) Not that our annual trips to a major league baseball park aren't fun...I do truly love doing anything with my son. However, "vacation" to me means having nothing that I HAVE to do... : )

My favorite vacation is the same one I had as a child. Santa Fe! My grandmother lived just north of Santa Fe so we spend our summers there. There is nothing like a New Mexico sunset but my very favorite thing is wandering around the square admiring the handiworks of the different tribes. You can see the differences in the tribes by their works. I hold my treasures I buy each time I go close to my heart. they are always special. My heart feels renewed when returning my favorite vacation. Check it out sometime..hope you will love, too!! Janet Ledford
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite vacations is an unexpected snow day. You don't know you are going to have it so you can't plan a bunch of chores to complete - you can't go anywhere so you aren't out running all those errands that are forever needing to be done. It is almost like you are forced to lay around resting and watching old movies all day. Plus you get the added benefit of wearing the traditional "snowed in" outfit which consist of a pair of old sweatpants and a shabby old t-shirt. And come on now, I know everyone has that same outfit.

ReplyDeleteMy best summer vacation was when I was 9 years old. I had no worries and life was great. I would walk over to my grandparents house at night and would play with my two uncles who were a little older than I. We would lay in the yard on our backs and watch the stars or catch lightning bugs and put them in a jar. Some evenings we would go over to the neighbor's pond and swim. Other evenings we would catch frogs and fry them over our campfire that we would build in the ditch by the side of the dirt road. That was the best food I have ever eaten. The neighbor boys would come down some nights and we would play war using a stick with green persimmons stuck on the end of it. You would swing the stick and the persimmon would fly off and hit your enemy. When it hit you it really did hurt. We did something like this every night because we had no t.v. or video games. We didn't have snacks between meals and there were no overweight kids in our neighborhood because we were always busy playing. No one thought they were better than anyone else and we all played together and had a good time. It is sad that we all have to grow up and see things change. Leland
