My husband and I traveled a great deal before children. After kids, not much. Now, we are finally in a house where the MIL can watch the dogs and we can go away for long wknds. Plus, we live w/in driving distance of so many great cities and places it's easy to just get in the car & go. <br /><br />Happy New Year to you!CaliforniaGirl500http://www.womenofcertainage.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8346506349285197389.post-33152343820392329932012-01-03T08:17:11.399-05:002012-01-03T08:17:11.399-05:00Thanks Betsy.
