To Dos

We often say what it is we want to do in life and I am no different. I look forward to a time that I am able to not have to worry about wok and can spend leisure time with my wife doing whatever it is we want to do. Traveling is always at the top of the list of things to do and I would have to say in that regard we are no different. I can list three places off of the top of my head that I would like to take my wife to see and they are as follows.

#1

Redwood Forest, Northern California. One of the most majestic and awe inspiring sights I have ever seen. I have not been there since I was a teenager, and the only thing that beat it was the Grand Canyon. To be honest this is the only place I can see myself camping ever again, and for me to say that it has to be a special place.

 

#2

Garden of the Gods, Colorado Springs, CO

Another destination I remember from my youth that I find that I just can’t think of a better place to see before it’s all over (I know that sounds morbid but couldn’t think of another way to put it) the views here are majestic and breath taking. I think the other alluring aspect of this destination is the proximity to 2 other locations nearby, Canon City, CO and Pikes Peak , these are two other places from my childhood that I remember vividly (specifically almost going down Pikes Peak the wrong way) and would love to share with her.

 

#3

This location is a bit more difficult to choose not because I can’t think of one , but because I think I have set the bar very high with my previous picks, and that I feel that anything I may choose would be considered inferior in scale and beauty. However, I believe that for this one the location would be across the ocean and would require so much time that I think a lifetime would not be long enough to explore and see all that we wanted. I speak of Europe and all of its many locations that are not only picturesque but also enchanting to the point that it hurts. whether it is Scotland, Ireland, Germany, France, England, Italy, or Spain each has destinations that we both want to see. Aside from the most obvious destinations I would also like to visit some of the more less publicized destinations like Prague, and even Romania just because I would really like to see some of the old world architecture.

 

Like I said at the beginning of this post travel is probably the most popular to do item on everyone's list.While there are other locations I would love to see in the world (Japan and Australia) these would for sure be at the top of my list of places to take my wife.

One day……..
