Travelling Spider

Post by TheSpider »

Hiya y'all,
This Spider has been travelling, and has more travelling to do!

Last month, my brother George came to visit, on his way to Australia.
Arianna and I picked him up in Atlanta, Georgia, and drove him back here to Lexington, Kentucky for a few days.
Then I hired a car and drove him to Dallas, Texas, for him to catch his next flight.
It was a 2 day drive there, and the same back!
In the last 7 years, this small town Scotsman has visited 13 states (in order: NJ, KY, OH, IN, IL, PA, WV, NY, TN, NC, GA, AR, TX).
Some of my pics of that trip may be found here: http://KYSpider.bebo.com

Next Tuesday (April 18th), Arianna and I are flying back to Britain for a 3 week visit. Coming back on May 9th, relaxing the 10th, and back to work on the 11th.
The trip looks something like this: Lexington - Atlanta - London - Glasgow - Aberdeen - Kirkcaldy/Glenrothes - Loch Tummel (where we were engaged) - Elgin (home town, for about a week) - Inverness - Ullapool - Fort William - Oban - Glasgow - Cumbria - Glasgow - London - Cincinnati - Lexington.
Will be there for my birthday (April 30th), and my Mum is throwing us a
Wedding Reception - 7 years later!!!!

While back, I am hoping to meet with Bob and then Steve.
Yep, I am a glutton for punishment.

Hard thing will be the lack of a keyboard at my fingertips for most of my trip.
However, will be helping my Mum buy a new PC, and will be setting it up, and transferring all their business data from the old one. That will keep me happy for a day or two.

Anyone else planning trips this year?
