A Lovely Time

Describe your most memorable vacation.

I had traveled across much of Europe. I had visited London and Dublin and gone all over Israel. I really enjoyed a short stay in a ClubMed in Western Mexico.

And yet, none of that compares with the first trip we took as a couple. My now husband whisked me off to a long weekend in Newport RI.

A storm greeted us as we crossed the bridge to our destination. We had already slogged through an amazing traffic backup en route.

Of course, this would not have made the weekend notable.

The promise of our love and companionship is what flavored this trip and gave us the memories.

Over the years, we’ve taken many short hops in the eastern states, each a fond memory of joy and laughter.

This was just the beginning, and we all know that beginnings are special.
