About me
Long time TT addict, with handles dating back before April 2000. Now semi-retired and volunteering a lot. So while in theory we can travel anytime, in reality it still takes advanced planning to get away. A great vacation for us features moderate 1-2 hour walks in scenic places, birdsong, gardens, tasty food we don’t have to wait hours for, no crowds, no city traffic. And for many years we violated the whole list to attend Oshkosh, WI EAA airshow each July. Interesting aviation sights or museums are worth any hassle.
