I hope when I go back this summer that I can make it through the airport without a meltdown. I did not try hailing a cab. Maybe that's my hurdle this year. Or not. I'm a good walker. :)Cheryl Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16322884480241887224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-87813224358506379942015-06-08T21:32:03.265-07:002015-06-08T21:32:03.265-07:00Oh, Amy, you are so fun.

I am somewhat of a risk taker - a cautious risk taker maybe. I don't jump out of plane or anything like that but I did dare to write a story and let other people read it. I think that was a HUGE risk!!Amy Vastinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10370234907973582544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-53436631687922177652015-06-08T18:05:52.906-07:002015-06-08T18:05:52.906-07:00Now that sound fun.Now that sound fun.Beth Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02447148196867821907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-74406903298140719162015-06-08T17:37:09.068-07:002015-06-08T17:37:09.068-07:00Id love to live in New York for just a year.
