Aspiring

A lot of us first aspired to far-ranging travel and exotic adventure early in our teens; these ambitions are, in fact, adolescent in nature, which I find an inspiring idea. . . Thus, when we allow ourselves to imagine as we once did, we know, with a sudden jarring clarity, that if we don't go right now, we're never going to do it. And we'll be haunted by our unrealized dreams and know that we have sinned against ourselves gravely.

Is that Washington State highlighted as one of your stops? Why is it green? It doesn't look lie you will be close enough for a cup of tea, maybe next trip? As you fly over the Dakota'a, wave.

Close to Washington State (in fact I can see the lights of Port Angeles from the beach) but nope, it's BC - my starting point. If you're in the Dakotas it seems I've moved farther away from you than I was before. :) The second stop there is NC.

Yes, I know about the NC stop. You two Jen's in the same room. I'm in South Dakota, but I would almost drive to NC to see that.
