Dream Destinations
Use your imagination. Where would you like to go? This is what we did for so many years. We have been planning this adventure for years. We talked about the places we wanted to see, and things we might want to do. Lei had been to Yosemite as a child, but wanted to visit and maybe volunteer at the park. Howard wanted to see the great National Parks of the West, like Sequoia, Grand Canyon, and Yellowstone. Lei had also heard of Cape May, in New Jersey, and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We also wanted to spend some time in Washington, DC, seeing all the monuments and the Smithsonian Museums. Then there was sightseeing in Maine, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Howard wanted to see Alaska, although Lei was still pushing for the Crystal Harmony cruise up the inland passage instead of the RV.
We once saw a special on PBS about the lighthouses along the east and west coast of the country. And there are hundreds of historic sites in the states of the Confederacy, great battle grounds like Gettysburg and Fort Sumter. There are big and little museums around the country that tell the little stories of the people who built each little town, each great industry. Route 66 and the Grand Tetons. We still talk and dream every day of all the places to see.
