I recently received a group vacation suggestion from my bank, of all places. Here were some choices:
- Antarctica and South American Cruise (winter here, summer there) — Antarctic peninsula, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Falkland Islands, Cape Horn, Ushuaia, Santiago.
- Rockies, Rails & Red Rocks (summer) — 3 train excursions, 3 national parks
- HGTV Southern Road Trip (fall) — Visit well-known fixer-upper locations in Waco, TX, Laurel, MS, Wetumpka, AL, and Muscle Shoals, AL
- Lake Michigan Great Lakes Expedition (summer) — Mackinac Island and Grand Hotel, cross “Mighty Mac” suspension bridge, 7-mile dune tour
- American Queen steamboat trip (late fall) — Travel up the Mississippi River in steamboat style from New Orleans to Memphis
- Panama Canal & Caribbean Cruise (winter) — Grand Cayman, Jamaica, Colombia, Panama, and Costa Rica
- Country Music Trip — All kinds of country music events in Tennessee
- Black Hills, Mt. Rushmore, and Yellowstone (summer) — motor coach trip
Of all these choices, I think I would pick the first one. How about you?

Not Antarctica. And I’ve been to the Mount Rushmore area. Also to New Orleans.
The Panama Canal is on my bucket list. The Rockies/Red Rocks rail trip sounds fun. Or Lake Michigan.
Alaska is also on my bucket list.
But I’m still dreaming of post-pandemic travel. I haven’t been more than 90 miles from home in over two years. So ANYWHERE where someone else cooks for me sounds good.
