I have not traveled much in my life. Did take a vacation entire west coast from Vancouver to Mexico in 1985. Hmmm. But I did go to the mall. Two years ago. Does that count ?
I’d love to take the two bags somewhere today. Any place warm would be nice as ten inches of snow descends upon WI…but in two days it’s supposed to be 48 degrees–almost as warm as Miami, Carl! 😀
http://intomystic.wordpress.com/, territerri, Lives in WI too. Check out her blog. If these don’t work use my blog roll, tell her I sent you. Looks like we’ll be back to low 70’s in a day or two.
I had to laugh out loud at this. It’s just so true. Especially with low fare airline Ryanair aiming to cut out check in baggage altogether, I wonder if I’ll ever bring a suitcase with me again…at least for short haul flights. Gotta share this with my travel buddies! 😀
I remember that. Dad worked for the airlines and when shopping pushes the grocery cart as I load. It takes twice as long and he aggravates me because he packs the stuff like loading an airplane. Old folk’s eccentricities.
Just think, it gives you more opportunity to buy stuff at your destination and help the economy!! Uh, but what happens when you go home….? May a boom of the Salvation Army and Goodwill!!!
Gee, ain’t the future great!!
I tried that golf stuff a coupla times but that one by the zebra screwed up my score so much I quit trying and never went back. The hot dogs were pretty good though.
