Dream list

There are a few places here in the US that I so desperately want to go see at different times of the year.

These things have always been on my dreams list to make into a reality...my bucket list.

Last night I was at my sisters house with her friend Marcole. She was telling us all about her trip to Spain for Christmas. Then she went on to tell about how she went to Vermont in the Winter and how it had met all of her expectations, etc, etc. We then started planning a girls trip there, and talking about other places we wanted to visit.
 
 So it was that conversation that sparked today's post. I dream of seeing these places at a specific time of year.

1. Vermont in the Fall.

All of that fall foliage! Ahh! I have dreamed about going there since...gosh...who knows when. It's all so magical! I want to go see these little towns, go antique shopping, stay at a bed and breakfast, etc, etc.

  

2. DC in the Spring. CHERRY BLOSSOMS!

There is this video that my Aunt made for our families years ago. It's footage of my Dad's life growing up (and his siblings). I LOVE watching this video. I LOVE seeing them as kids, and seeing how their life was. 

Anyway, there is a particular part in the video that I love. They all take a walk around Tidal Basin (This is where the Thomas Jefferson Memorial is located, as well at the MLK Memorial) in DC in the Spring with all the Cherry Blossoms surrounding them.  This is THE spot for Cherry Blossoms in the Spring. 

Now, I've been to DC...once. But it wasn't in the Spring, and I desperately want to go in the Spring. I want to walk around the Basin basking in the beauty of those millions of blossoms. 

Oh so MAGICAL!

 3. NY at Christmas

A long time ago there was a movie that came out called 'Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York'. I'm sure you've all seen it. I LOVE this movie. Love, love, LOVE it. Not so much for the story line, but more so for the scenery. 

Christmas in New York sounds so exciting, doesn't it?! Skating at Rockefeller Center with the Giant Christmas Tree right there in front of you. Walking in a snow covered Central Park. All the lights!! Ahh! I have dreamed of spending a Christmas or two there.

 

Other places I want to visit in the US as well at any time of the year...

-Louisa May Alcott's home in Massachussetts. 

I'm a HUGE fan of 'Little Women'. We'd watch the original version together as sisters with my Mom in the early years, and then the newer one after it came out. We have tea parties and watch Little Women. Such a great movie, and book. 

I would love to see her house 'Orchard House' where this story takes place. 

So many other places I'd like to visit.

Obviously I'm in a traveling mood..haha!
