Hard Up.
We rode the train. THE train. Commuter rail has arrived. As part of the hype you could ride for free, so we took the kiddies to experience metropolitan splendor. The crowds were large. The smells were smelly. It was almost like we were really in New York or DC, except when we looked out the windows, we were passing cattle and backyards with trampolines. And, there were trillions of kids on board instead of hordes of suit-wearing, Blackberry-talking executives. After our ‘trip’, we went to get sandwiches at Gandolfo’s. As I sat there gazing at the poster of the Chrysler Building and eating my Long Island Chicken Salad, I almost---ALMOST----felt like we were on a vacation. Yeah. Really. Can someone [Chad] please buy this girl a ticket and send me somewhere? I really need some travel therapy. Soon.

A ticket to Philly is a GREAT idea. Time is ticking on your free super awesome tour guides! The subway here is to. die. for.
Really.
You might die.
:)
Sounds fun. (metropolitan splendor. heh.) makes me recall fun times taking my kids around San Francisco when they were smaller.
I hear ya sister! Calgon take me away!...or at least Mike.
Well I definitely know your destination. San Diego here you come! I'll be waiting by the door. Oh..and you may want to hurry. It won't be our door anymore in a few weeks. But maybe the new tenants will be super nice and would love to have you stay for a few days.
Let me know where you are going, I'll meet you there. I, too, am feeling a little stifled.
You are welcome in Texas. There is a public transit system here, but it does not come to McKinney. Thank Goodness. But we have a lot to do, and spring has found us...which is something I hear Utah is avoiding this year.
I'm with ya! I've been aching to go to the beach!! :o)
I know you love DC, Adri! Come on over! Oh what fun we would have! Love, Vanessa
P.S. Thank you so much for the Harry & David package - the pear I ate last night was divine! Thought of you every second!
