I cannot believe it’s been 2 years. Today is a proud and incredible day so I’m off enjoying and taking in some peaceful moments of reflection. I’ll be back with some thoughts and stories in a while…
Cheers to sticking it out through all the madness and smiling at the other end with many more years of adventure to come!

Did somebody say dream vacation?! I am IN! You all know I am a lover of road trips, so I naturally would plan a big ol’ road trip for my dream vaca. (Ok, so I haven’t been to Australia or New Zealand yet and I have been dreaming of feasting in Italy lately too…) I was joking with my little sister last week about taking her on the road and making the Diane and Erin Show. How fun would that be? I’ve recently updated the “bucket list” in my head from learning fluent Spanish and becoming a killer Salsa Dancer. I’ve added going x-country in/on:
1.) A convertible
2.) An RV
3.) A train
…and if you know me, you know I will make these trips happen. What do you want to make happen? I want to hear your story!
If I attempt to complete my mental bucket list I am in a good spot: My sister is trying to score a gig being an Au Pair in Spain so she will be able to teach me Spanish. My little bro is a Farmer and travels during the winter so I’m sure he could teach me some mad Salsa or other Spanish style sassy dances from all his South American adventures. I’d throw these two cuties in an RV or convertible and we’d hit the road Jack on June 1st one summer and just go go go until September 1. Full on top down, music blaring laughing and blowing through miles. We’d feast and explore. We’d go to National Parks and visit friends and talk to strangers. We’d take a million photos and videos and blog all of our stories. Oh how fun that would be. Here’s a photo of my two cutie-pie sibs that could be my partners in crime:
Aren’t they adorable?
Get dreaming peeps! It could happen! I left the east coast with barely a dime in July and made it to Alaska safe, sound and jumping around like an idiot. If you dream it and enter it- it will come! Don’t forget to enter the “Do What You Love” Sweepstakes, for a chance to win your own ultimate family vacation. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do.
Is it too late to get one of these on the x-mas list for Santy?
A friend sent me this link today after I had been talking to him about the Honda Civic design I have. After making a perfect little house out of my Civic all summer, I’ve got the specs for a perfect travel-friendly mobile that could work for anyone. Basically a personal RV that gets better gas mileage than those big ol’ ones. Until I can convince Honda they need to create the BLR Honda Roadtripper, I’ll gladly take one of these other personal hobo-mobiles. Ooh, doesn’t just talking about it get you jazzed up for all the summer 2011 road trips that are possible?
