Crazy trip bargain
Stumbled upon this one last night. Fly from Grand Forks, ND to Mesa AZ from Sept 4-8 for $55 each way. Or, package it with one of the most amazing, prestigious hotels (Arizona Biltmore, Waldorf Astoria) AND a car rental.... $750. That's air, hotel, car & taxes included for 2 people. OMG. If I didn't have kids heading back to school, you know where I'd be.

What's your hobby?
One of the simply amazing things about the Internet is the ability to connect people with similar interests or hobbies. You may like lime green Dodge Neon cars, with after market exhaust systems and Kenwood stereos and chances are you can find the (2 ... JK) other people in the universe that like the same. If you have a popular interest like Elvis Presley photos, you will be able to find millions of web pages that can grab your interest. So, it really doesn't matter where on earth you live, or what you are interested in, you can connect with like-minded individuals.
There was a time when hunting for vintage car parts could take years or even decades. A person could dedicate hours on every road trip to stopping in small town garages, or farmers' fields, or collector's swap meets to find the part they needed. Now, all you do is click a few times on Google, and there you are.... parts for your AMC Gremlin.
My tastes, though more refined (just kidding. I am a jokester today!!) include 1949 Chevrolet trucks and 1962 Corvettes. Seems any time I wish to indulge in daydreaming I can sit down in my comfy computer chair and view the most beautiful cars/trucks on the web. But am I missing out? Am I missing out on the great stories or the treasure hunts and mysteries of chasing the elusive car, or parts for the elusive car? Do things now-a-days just come too easy? What ever happened to the thrill of the chase?

What moves you?
Though the weather has been absolutely terrible lately, people still find the strength to help each other and to keep moving forward. That in itself is inspirational. Floods, fires, tornadoes and hail are things we can't control. All anybody can do is prepare in advance, act on the best information you have and have faith that we will overcome all obstacles.
It seems to me that these same battles are fought against disease and sickness. You can build yourself up with good food, exercise and positive energy, but you must face what life throws your way. Events like the Cancer Relay for Life, where participants walk all night, rejoice and share memories of loved ones, take place all over North America. It's a wonderful thing when people come together in celebration or remembrance.
Together, we are so much stronger.
