Thoughts on taking a vacation

My previous post on going to Vegas for the PBR along with the fact that it is freezing in Dallas right now has me thinking about vacations.  I was thinking about one particular vacation we took one winter to Tennessee.  It was totally unplanned and was one of the best we have ever taken.  We were headed to northern Arkansas and and ice storm shut down Fayetteville Airport.  The airline offered to fly us anywhere we wanted to go at no charge to make up for us being stuck.  Those were the good old days of being a Platinum Flier with American.

We wanted mountains and tried Denver, Albuquerque and some other spots all either took to much time to get to for our short trip.  Last ditch try I say Nashville they say yes and off we go.  My wife and son ask what is in Tennessee and I say we will see when we get there.  We spent 4 days driving around the state, saw mountains, civil war battlefields and caverns and other cool stuff.  We were never in a rush and everything worked out perfect including getting a car with no reservations at the airport.  We got lucky and it was fun.

If I was to take an impromtu vacation now though I may rely on a service like Trusted Tours and Attractions and take one of their sightseeing tours or may be just beat the cold for a bit and head off on a Miami Vacation.  A bit of sun would be great right now.  One more thing if you visit the Trusted Tours website be sure to sign up for their news letter.  When you do you could win a hand held GPS.  Those things are cool and great to have when you are visiting new city or even just bumping around town.
