Sib trip possibilities!

Okay, you want ideas, I got ideas.

We could do a TumTum tour. Visit our cousins in Spokane, jaunt out to Mom’s birthplace, visit the old Newell Cemetery in TumTum. Maybe even find the old homestead. And then there is Grandpa's dam!

We could do Dad’s old stomping ground. Yes, visit the great cities of Wendell, Bliss, Buhl, Shoshone and Hagerman. This would be a repeat for Karla and myself, so we could show you so much and give you such a family education.

We could do a New Mexico extravaganza: visit Cousin Carol in Albuquerque, do Santa Fe, see which sibling is abducted by aliens in Roswell, visit some cliff dwellings.

Of course, there is the Oregon Coast. Even I don’t get there often enough.

If we want to be urbane, we could base a sib trip in a city… say San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara… might be expensive, depending on timing… but you never know.

I don’t mean to downplay the trek to the Vagg and Crutchfield hometown of Saco, Montana. There is just so much to do there and… well, I just get emotional thinking about it.

Now I have been being western centric because of our Hawaiian contingency, but let’s not complete rule out a farther east destinations.

A St. Louis/Memphis combo could be fun.

Or the Great Smoky Mountains and Asheville, NC

Maybe this is the year for New England.

There are so many possibilities!
