What a fabulous trip it was!!! Road trips are quite underrated. With the right person, the right playlist, munchies, and conversations... a person could ride around for hours. And this road trip has become one of my favorite road trips of all time. This is my dear, darling, wonderful friend, Rick. We left Wednesday for Hot Springs for a long, luxurious spa weekend. We hopped in the car late afternoon Wednesday, armed with snacks and a killer playlist! We sang our way into Hot Springs by evening with a few random side roads for scenic pleasure.

I am, however, going on a mini vacation this weekend. I am looking forward to that. A chance to get out of town and away from here. Not as an escape, but as an escape (if that makes any sense). A change of scenery, even if just a fleeting moment. A change of pace, even if it will be short lived. So... I'm still here. I'm still breathing. I'm still living. I'm still here. And so it goes.......
