Dropped the Bucket

I had more plans for Fall adventuring through November, to Christmas adventuring in December....but I'm not sure what happened.  It didn't go as planned.

John and Kevin and myself went to Hiawassee to have Thanksgiving dinner with my parents.

About two? three? years ago, me and my Aunt went on an adventure to Traveler's Rest Inn in Toccoa, Georgia, and Toccoa Falls, and Helen, Georgia, in December, so Christmastime. We had a good time, and she said she wanted to do some more things like that.
Last year I had planned us a trip, but she forgot and made other plans. This year, I haven't been able to get my act together and plan anything, and this THIS happened:

Very odd, early December snow storm.
Not only do we rarely ever get snow in December, but never 9 to 12 inches.

It started snowing on Friday, snowed all day, and all day Saturday, too.  Ryan is off on weekends, so we didn't budge from the house (other than I had to go out and feed & water the chickens, but I didn't change out of my PJs to do that).

This Saturday Ryan has a Christmas party to attend, and the next Saturday we'll be headed to my parents to have our family Christmas, since John has to work Christmas Eve day, and Ryan has to work Christmas Day.

So December is pretty well shot. (So am I, to be honest. It has been a rough year.)

One of the (many) things I've been spending my time NOT adventuring doing is doing some de-cluttering.

I used to be a complete Souvenir Junkie, collecting all sorts and types and kinds of these and those while on a trip somewhere. Souvenir drinking cups, playing cards, thimbles, Christmas tree ornaments, lanyards, caps, pins, etc etc.
After I "went frugal" I stopped buying all the things, but still collecting all the Free things I could get a hold of, mainly travel brochures, magazines, papers, etc.

So I had boxes and bins and vintage suitcases and bags FULL of souvenir and travel stuff.  I started going through it and tossing tons of extra brochures, faded receipts, coupon books, maps, etc etc. into the recycle bin, and boxed up a lot of the souvenir drinking cups and such and donating them to the Goodwill.

Long story short - going through all my Cruise memorabilia made me want to go another cruise.
Preferably a long, 7 or 10 or even 14 day one would be great - unfortunately not feasible at this time - so I said, okay, well, a short one is better than not one at all:

It's only one day in Nassau, one day at Sea, but I'll take it!
