Day 70

I like to daydream, when I see planes overhead I wonder where they're going, is it somewhere exotic? Is this plane full of spring breakers? Is there anyone famous on the plane? Do famous people even fly commercial planes any more? I like to fly, well sort of, ever since a certain flight to Orlando years ago, (ask my sister she'll tell you all about it), I haven't flown much. But I do like to travel, I mostly go visit my sister in Florida and we drive, it's not a bad drive and you do get to see what the country actually looks like. On our trip last fall they had just harvested the cotton in Alabama, and there were bits of raw cotton all along the road, I stopped and grabbed some for my niece so she could show the kids in school, if you look for little things like that on long car trips it makes it more fun. I also like to read the little blurbs in the guide books about the country. I drive my family nuts with useless facts about the areas we are traveling through, for example, cheeseburgers were first served inn 1934 at Kaolins restaurant in Louisville Kentucky. You learned something today, you're welcome. Maybe I am just feeling a bit of cabin fever, spring is just right around the corner and it is spring break time after all, so for now I will look at the planes in the sky and imagine where I would be going if I were with them. And just remember the monarch butterfly is the official state insect of Alabama.
