(this post has nothing to do with the Red Sox or Fenway Park)

Peter and I had dinner on Friday with my long, lost childhood friend, ***Laura Finizio|http://artists.iuma.com/IUMA/Bands/Laura_Finizio*** and her brand new fiance, Johnny. I’d say it’s been 7ish years since we’ve seen each other, but we have kept in touch through IM and email. The four of us met at our local Applebees and had a nice dinner… it was great to catch up and chat. A good time was had by all.

The jealousy comes into play when you hear what Laura and Johnny are up to. Both have left their unsatisfying jobs in Maryland, have bought an RV trailer and a truck and are spending a year driving around the US of A. Man o Man do I wish I had the guts/confidence/money/time to do that! They have plans to stop along the way and work in exchange for lodging and food… and are sure to meet a ton of cool people along the way.

I have been lucky enough to have traveled quite a bit in my life, but a trip like this would really take the cake. Someday….someday!
