Unfortunately, when I was MUCH younger, I only went one place. Jamaica. It
was my divorce present. After that, single parent, 3 jobs, 2 kids,
mortgage, utilities. No money.

Then I met my husband when I was 40 and the kids were teens. Marriage, kids
grew up, mortgage, 2nd mortgage, motorhome, sell house, retire, mobile home,
travel. A little late, but I'll enjoy it!
