Greener spaces? You can squat in Central Park for a while. It is summer ya know!
(It was Beefstocks rolling upstate hills that got you, I knew I should have cancelled that event!)

You jest, and yet it was being upstate that got my heart a-thumpin' for mountains and creeks and whatnot.

So, yeah, where do you picture, when you picture greener pastures, up there near woodstock? Tuscany?

Paula - 2004-05-20 13:56:23
Maybe I just need a vacation. But Tuscany sounds nice! Or Iceland.

Iceland! I've wanted to get there for years! I even have a hook-up: a friend of my brother's is Icelandic. I'm sadly lacking in kr�nur, though.

I was just looking on Orbitz for cheap flights to Reykjavik, but my computer crashed, so I'm going to take that as a sign.

Iceland is an insanely cheap fare! Plus y'all NYC dwellers don't even have to pony up the dough for a connecting flight to JFK (unless you're using the helipad on top of your ultramodern swank buildings). It's up to $578 per person roundtrip, but this is tourist season; if you were to fly to Iceland in the winter, you can sometimes do it for $125 or so. I couldn't fly to NYC for $125 roundtrip!

Yes! This is what I've heard. And that it's charming and unusual and there is a music scene there, etc. I suppose I could hold off til after the tourist season.

You will have to come down to Maryland one weekend with me and Dave this summer - it's all about fishing. Very relaxing.

Nader would never accept a position as Kerry's running mate. I don't think Nader really wants to be president anyway. He just wants to air his views.

Yeah, just a vacation, or even just thoughts of one.... (I didn't mean to cause no trouble.) The pull of stream fishing for me is how likelier it is for scenery to overwhelm ya when you're not outright gawking at it. (Though that, as you sort of implied, may also have to do with gawking tending to be a group thing.) And May is the time of year when ya really feel that pull. But, as long as America doesn't completely lose its mind, that'll still be available when we get old (eyes and legs willing)... and something to truly look forward to.

Whoops, looks like senility's already setting in.

my bettahalf departed today at 6am to go fly fishing in Ontario. i'm too young to be a fishing widow! (and not ready to cast my shoes out for something new...)

Annie:
Ah, now I know who you are (parenthetical statement gave you away). I thought you were my friend Anne from MN.
