Before George Floyd was killed, I was working on our Staycation plans--but I lost steam as I grieved for our nation and its many "problems." After a slump and some new energy, I am returning to this!
So get ready for Staycation 2020.
We were already "social distancing." Hubby can't take the flu shot, so during flu season, he hibernates, and we stay away from folks. 2020 was to be our year for travel. Alas, a pandemic--who knew?
I believe one of the greatest gifts bestowed upon us by God is a sense of humor. For some reason, the word Staycation kept coming to me as if to say, "Pay attention!" It got my attention. We've done staycations before; done things around our town, or a simple day trip. But this Staycation was to be different! A Staycation where you only stay at home!!!!
That's when the playfulness began. I'd sing this little jingle about staycation and smile. On my Facebook page, I asked folks for their suggestions for a Staycation for the elderly. Some of the answers were just precious and very, very good. Some were so hysterical that even my dog thought I'd lost my mind. Thanks to all you responded.
But this Staycation has to be different. That's when I saw evening news and this clip that made my heart soar:

I knew that this was to take some creativity on my part and a continuing sense of humor, too. As I trolled the pages of Pinterest, I became inspired, and went to work digging through craft materials on hand and trash! I came up with this nifty little travel trailer. It's a symbol to us that an adventure is about to begin! Wish us luck!
We are still planning, laughing all the way! Stay tuned for more adventures! Stay safe! You, too might want to consider a Staycation!
