Our Goal:

OUR GOAL: Visit fifty states within the next two years. (edited: We missed our two year deadline but still hope to visit all 50 states)

The Rules: States we visit or where we have already visited as a family (three or more members) count. States visited by only one or two family members (such as a business trip) don't count.

Layovers and stopovers don't count. We have to actually either drive though a state or do some activity, outside of the airport, in that state.

I'm baaack - and ready to travel

Bringing you up to speed:

Big Boy started playing football a few years back and trust me when I say it:  Football eats up your life.

Then football ended and we got tied up moving to a bigger house to accommodate my aging mother.  Then, I spent every available weekend fixing the attached apartment up for Mom.  Finally, Mom moved in with us which meant that our travels were severely limited.

We managed to fit a few Disney trips in with mom but, there is no way she could have kept up with the pace of our little adventures.  Mom's health declined to the point where even a trip to the grocery store required making arrangements for her care.

We lost mom about a year ago and have finally gotten our life settled enough to think about travel again.

I have left my job as a Court Bailiff and am now working full time for our local County.  The kids are now 13 & 15.  We have pretty much lost Big Boy to friends and video games.  And, on top of that, he is about to play high school football so there goes the Summer and Fall.

But, I still have Lil' Bit.  She wants to continue our quest to visit each state.  She and I have a Disney trip planned for later this week and then the whole family is off to California in July.  Of course, Disneyland is on our agenda!

I am still a Disney Travel Agent and have recently become certified to also sell Sea World, Universal Studios (and all related parks) as well as other Florida Destinations.
