okay where have you been on vacations
well i've been to Europe uh England and France uh specifically i like those
oh wow
international huh
but uh my favorite things to do i think are going skiing in the winter Utah Colorado
oh
uh-huh
uh et cetera
oh great so when you went to uh you know to Europe and did you go on was that a one trip or three different trips
that was a single about a ten day swing through uh maybe six in England and four in France
oh
uh-huh how did you like that was that too fast oh was it oh uh-huh
it was great yeah because i had my son with me uh my sixteen year old son and so uh it was it was a good experience for him to see some of the things he had studied and so forth
boy i'll say
uh-huh now was that before um before the two Germanies were when they were separate or
no it was a it was well yeah it was as it was happening actually
uh-huh
was it really oh wow
kind of uh it was it was pretty close to that time but
you were there right while history was taking place
but we weren't over in that part of the world so it wasn't really uh something that we
oh
got a lot of of input into but
uh-huh
oh
how about yourself where do where do you like to go to vacation
well uh we take our vacations we mostly go camping in the mountains we live in a little mountain community and um
even when i was growing up though we would go to places like oh Redfish Lake in Idaho and um
Island Park in Idaho different places like that i have been to uh my husband and i have been different places like to Disney World and
i'm not a real big person for flying i just as soon would would travel you know on the ground um
oh okay
you get some great camping areas in your
we do we do
area there close i'm a i'm a Boy Scout leader so i'm out backpacking camping quite a bit too and
oh boy i'll say you probably are
i've done uh mountains in New Mexico and Colorado but i never have gotten up into Idaho and Wyoming and and those parts of Utah that are so pretty and
oh
uh-huh
oh there there are there're some gorgeous places have you you've never been to the Tetons or
no i would like to
any of those spots oh it is nice now when you go skiing do you you fly here i imagine no
um-hum yeah you either fly into Denver or Salt Lake or somewhere and then rent a car and go the rest of the way
um-hum
oh and do you enjoy that
yes yeah in fact
do you come alone or with your
usually with uh just whoever uh uh the whole office is going skiing i'm taking my my whole office in uh February to Crested Butte and then uh
um-hum
oh
oh
in a week mom and i agreed to chaperon my son's school trip to Vale with about fifty five young people
oh
oh wow i'm oh boy you will have your your hands full how long is that gonna be for
and five adults so i'm in
uh
that'll be uh five days in March
oh huh
but uh sometimes i've taken my girl friend and gone last last winter i did that and so
uh-huh
oh well how fun now when you went abroad did you was it a package plan or did you plan it yourself or
planned it myself and uh arranged for a private uh residence in um England through a guy that we knew that had a flat there
oh
um-hum
uh-huh
and then uh the travel agent downstairs helped me with uh a lodging place in Paris
oh
and then we kind of booked some other things on our own that was so it was sort of a piece meal thing
uh-huh oh well that did that work out good would you do that again
yeah yeah i think so it depend depend on where i was going i had good inside information about where i was headed and so i knew uh kind of what i was getting into but if
um-hum
oh
what
if i were to strike out to a part of the world i didn't know anything about i i might not do it all on my own
um-hum
um-hum did you have places arranged that you wanted to see that you know on your schedule then
yeah yeah we kind of had a list going of things and we
did some trade-offs and we saw most of what we wanted to see uh uh we had a list of far more than we could possibly see so we kind of had to pick and choose a little bit
oh
uh-huh
had to cut decide what you really wanted to once you got there
yeah and uh sometimes you wound up staying longer at one place and than another
oh well that's fun i um i can get tickets airline tickets through my brother and uh
he's a pilot and so we take a few but weekend type jaunts to Chicago and and different places around and that's fun too that's a good little vacation they say
you know just a couple days getting away it makes means a lot it
oh sure
but if you don't like to fly then
i don't but i am getting better used to be i'd i'd almost couldn't
you're uh
you know bring myself to stay on the plane but but now i'm getting better so huh any other vacations you wanted to talk about or
well uh i one place i haven't done is go somewhere like a cruise in in a warm climate or or down into a tropical place for a beach vacation
oh
