"I was born lost and take no pleasure in being found."
- John Steinbeck, Travels with Charlie


          I spend all my money on pointless travels from point A to point B, however I do this guiltlessly and with pure joy. My kind-hearted mother might not understand any of it, but she knew I needed some cheering up, so off we went to the Virginia coast. It was a wonderful little trip, with the added bonus of extreme heat and humidity, just the way I like it.

We sent this photo to my father: 

1) to say, "We wish you were here too."

2) to remind us that we are very lucky.

 The perfect way to end my travels; they had me at Chambord.

If I haven't said it enough, thanks again Mom!
