Coffee Talk: Travel Talk

I’d like to welcome you to Coffee Talk. In case you’re new here, this is where I share some of the great and not~so~great stuff that I find on the web. Topics range from news stories that leave me scratchin’ my head to DIYs that I think are absolutely clever. And, who knows, there may even be a recipe thrown in here or there just for fun.

So grab a cup of coffee {or tea or whatever floats your boat} and let’s talk…

1. Sometimes when we travel, like we did this past weekend, The Hubs likes to ask me weird random questions. Just so you know, I’m an awful traveler. I don’t talk much but I will sing every song that comes on the radio to the top of my lungs. The question that stumped me was: “What makes you happy? Really truly happy.” Easy enough, right? No. Not for me. I’m not a stresser. I don’t crawl inside myself and get all angsty over stuff. Especially stuff I can’t change. I tend to take things in stride. And I compartmentalize.  That doesn’t mean I don’t get angry, sad, or worried. It just means, I think things will work themselves out. So I don’t think in terms of what makes me happy or sad. I operate in the world of contentment. I’m content. If nothing in my life changes, I’ll be OK. And if everything changes, I’ll deal. So, what makes you happy? Or are you content with your life? Are there things you’d change or do differently?
2. I think I’ve talked about this before… But The Hubs and I want to buy an RV ~ well, he wants an RV, I want an Airstream ~ so we can travel on the weekends and not have to worry about hotels and what to do with Squeekerz. We have no real destinations in mind, we just want to be able to go. Have you ever thought about RVing across the U.S.? I think it’d be fun to get out with my camera and add to the Abandoned Beauty collection.
3. I always say that I don’t have a destination in mind, but that’s not really true. There are two places I’d love to visit: the Grand Canyon and the National Archives in Washington, D.C. Where in the U.S. {or world} would you like to visit?

So, talk to me, what’s going on in your world,
