... a place that I have been to ... part of the A to Z series.
Fantastic summary! Let's see I have been to AZ, Chicago, DC, El Paso, Iowa, Mississippi, Niagara Falls, Philippines, Victoria, White Plains, and I believe as a child on a road-trip we drove through both Xenia and Zanesville, OH. I think I have been to KC but not super sure. We have been to the Butchart Gardens, that was fantastic.I know we have been a few places in both KS and MO, St Louis for sure. I saw the arch. Thanks for dropping by each day Bob!
ReplyDeleteThanks Gregg. Look forward to reading your Z. ツ
DeleteWell, I've missed a week or more of your blog posts. My sweet MIL passed away the 16th, so we had lots, (LOTS) of people here last week. She was a very special person. Raised her 8 children as a single mother when her husband died after 17 years of marriage. I plan on posting about her, soon. I'll try to get caught up, but if I don't, I have enjoyed the ones I read!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about you MIL Linda. Prayers for comfort in this difficult time.
DeleteShe was 95 and 10 days. She was ready to go to her eternal home. The memorial was absolutely beautiful!
DeleteThanks for sharing that Linda. My MIL was 97 when she passed and it was a blessed passing of a wonderful woman of faith.
DeleteWow, that was very interesting and entertaining Bob. I have not been to through the alphabet in travels that anyone would know. I have flown from Peris California to Portland Maine in a 4 passenger plane. So I few over a lot of states and saw it from 10 thousand feet. Wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteI loved remembering the times I spent in those places Wanda. Had not thought about them in some time.
