See the World??

I've suddenly given some thought to the name of my blog...I took the title from a song that I love by the band Gomez... the funny thing is... that I really haven't "seen the world"... Not that I don't want to see the world ... but I really haven't ... I started the blog as a way to let people know where I was and what I was doing on my trip cross country... so perhaps I should have selected the title... See the USA... (in a Chevrolet...lol... actually a Honda and Subaru)... but finally, I will get to see some part of the world... I'm finally going to go use my passport... I'm going to Italy... I am startled... and thrilled that I am actually going to do something I have dreamed about for 18 years... It's amazing... I started planning a trip to Italy during my chemotherapy...I plotted... planned... poured over tour books... found destinations...thought of ways to get around... what a great distraction it was... it provided a beautiful way to spend my horrible hours...and then, when I didn't take the trip... it became just a dream...an idea... a desire... a comforting, familiar dream... ahhh yes... Italy... yes... one day...
Well that day is 30 days from now!... it will become a reality... wow...
