Numero Deux
April 11th, 2008 by inquisitrix
Next month will be anniversary numero deux with my hunka hunka burnin’ LURVE. The past six months have been a whole lotta stress. I think we are both beginning to rebound a bit. We could definitely benefit from some down time, some away time and copious amounts of alcoholic beverages, with a side of chocolate.
Plus I finished our taxes last night and I will be damned if we aren’t getting a huge-ass refund. So, like all good American consumers, I need to do my part to stimulate the economy, stave off the recession doom and spend a little bit of it.
I think this calls for a trip and I have one month to plan. We can only be gone for 4 days (Wednesday through Sunday). We can drive or fly, but neither of us are campers. We could probably do a B&B, but we appreciate urban conveniences.
Where should we go?
I don’t think it matters where you go, but that you go…
Can’t wait to hear about it!
Canada!
If you’re looking for great food and shopping that isn’t far away, try Chicago. It should almost be a habitable temperature in a month.
If flying, head for Healdsburg, CA in Sonoma county. Mostly B&B country, but amazing food and wine available and absolutely beautiful scenery. This is the time to go because there are fewer tourists. Or Washington, D.C., where you can get into almost every museum for free, sample some fantastic food (ask me where, we lived there for 6 and a half years), and see the place in the full bloom of spring. Southwest has a non-stop to BWI, I think. Of course there is also Santa Fe, NM, but I’m a little biased on that. 
Amy, we will go to Canada, but we will need more than 4 days!
And April - the same for DC. I will definitely call you when we decide to go there. Chi-town sounds like the best option. Although I have always wanted to go to Santa Fe…
Duh, DENVER.
