Re: In my mind I'm going to...

Kanazawa Japan. Circa the 1300s (I don't know the date; it was during the shogun era) the town had a vote: they would focus on gardening, putting gold leaf on objects, making Kutani pots (which I collect) and Noh drama.

They voted against war.

It didn't stop war, but I feel in their community the commitment to making, rather than destroying. It runs deep. I love that city.

Darn those HGTV house hunter shows -- can't get lovely Maui out of my mind. Stayed for 9 days two years ago. I could go for a month next time.

Just made lodging plans for Door County, WI with the girlfriends in June -- North Carolina mountains with the handsome husband in late September. Fly fishing, hiking, and just being outdoors together. Will drive around my parents' hometowns. Fabulous grandparents memories.

Crossing my fingers for a trip to Scotland and N.Ireland in 2015 -- a 'roots' trip for husband and me. First visit
