Travels & Destinations
Utah
Utah, mostly the Southern half, hosts 5 of the best National
Parks anywhere with Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef
Nat’l Parks. There is also Glen Canyon Nat’l Rec Area as well as Lake Powell
that are areas available to explore. All
of these destinations are major scenic attractions that will demand a visit
from us for sure. We could probably spend
a month just there exploring these Nat’l Parks.
Since it is not really in our direct flight-path this time, we may have
to hit up Utah on another trip I am afraid.
To divert down to Southern Utah would be a huge trek out of the way and
some considerable additional mileage would be logged. We will see what happens OTR (on the road).
South Dakota
There are many sightseeing sites located in SD, such as Mt
Rushmore, Badlands, Wind Cave, Sturgis, and many more sites there I would like
to visit. I do not recall ever visiting
SD in my USAF travels. I have wanted to
visit this state for some time now, so we are looking forward to it. We are gonna have to spend some quality time
there exploring that vast area. Like
Utah & Montana, SD will take some time to explore and enjoy.
North Dakota
I have been to ND once in my USAF travels. I remember fixing
an airplane in a cold and wet winter drizzle/snowstorm back in the early
80s. Other than that one quick trip, I
never have been there for any real amount of time. We just spent several hours there on the
ground and we were out of there after I fixed the broken bird. The weather was pretty nasty and I did not
have a good time working out in it.
To be continued…
Weather
Weather is the
variety in our daily lives. This past winter, my midwestern friends whined
almost daily about the extremely low temps and the huge amount of snowfall. I can understand that. After 7 or so months, that does get old from
what I recall. Now we're hearing whining
about the heat and humidity, and summer is only just arrived and it isn't even
July yet. I understand your plight, but get over it already. We all have the option to pick up and move to
an environment you can tolerate.
Sometimes it may be pricey to do so, but it is all relative. Happiness sometimes comes with a price, and
for me, the price is worth it. I have
never complained about the weather here in the 35 years I have lived here. We have the best weather in the world I
believe. California taxes are quite high
I am afraid, so a permanent residency elsewhere is in the plans. Part-time living in California is always an
option. That decision will come soon
enough!
