Sounds as if you have lovely grandchildren. How great you were/are able to create special memories for them. I am sorry about your daughter’’s death. I too believe in creating special vacation memories with our children. We went to Vail, Colorado this summer and had a beautiful time. Expensive yes, but as they say, you can’t take it with you when you go.

My son, dil and other grandson just got back from two weeks in Colorado. Went to fireworks and jazz fest in Avon. Really wonderful this time of year, particularly compared to south Texas.

No you can’t take your money with you. We go to Scottsdale and Sedona, Arizona for two weeks during Christmas and the trip is my Christmas gift to them. I just tell them I’m spending their inheritance. But that way we go where I want to go and do things I want to do which the grandsons prefer anyway as they think it’s more fun. Last year family went camping in Colorado and got caught in torrential rains and a mud slide. Ended up staying at the YMCA for two nights. Youngest grandson said next time I had to go so they could stay in a decent hotel. LOL.
