[speaker001:] I don't know about you but I haven't had any trouble having any fun on vacation I can't think of any place I wouldn't want to go to take one
[speaker002:] um well where are some of the places you've been
[speaker001:] oh I know a real good place is Virginia it's real nice it has mountains beach whatever you want
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] have you been in any great places lately
[speaker002:] well I've been a lot of different places uh Hawaii Japan Europe
[speaker001:] oh now I haven't been there
[speaker002:] and and most of the fifty I haven't been to Alaska yet
[speaker001:] yeah oh really you plan on going
[speaker002:] yeah I thought we might go up on the uh inland ferry that goes up there from uh from British
[speaker001:] oh yeah now I'd like to go uh to Canada on the boat
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] my parents went not long ago or to Key West have you ever been to Key West
[speaker002:] yes
[speaker001:] is it pretty
[speaker002:] oh yeah it's a long desolate stretch but well desolate in that it's all uh the same scenery after a while just like driving in the desert you know after a while it all looks the same
[speaker001:] oh really oh no no I've never been huh is it very expensive
[speaker002:] huh no no
[speaker001:] not compared to Hawaii huh
[speaker002:] well actually Hawaii is getting cheap too because uh
[speaker001:] really
[speaker002:] with the economic uh situation uh situation we're in they've lowered the prices uh quite a bit
[speaker001:] well that's nice to know well that's good
[speaker002:] where do you stay when you go to Virginia on the beach
[speaker001:] um yeah I've been to Virginia Beach and I've been up to the uh homestead in hot springs in the mountains it's real nice
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and uh oh let's see I've been to Charlottesville through Monticello uh my husband's a a landscape architect and he uh he really liked that and to see Thomas Jefferson's home
[speaker002:] uh-huh yeah I bet well if he's a landscape architect he ought to like Washington DC in the daylight hours
[speaker001:] yeah now we we went there went there to stay at the Army Navy club with my dad and that was real nice that was real nice
[speaker002:] your dad's in the military
[speaker001:] uh no he used to be he he's a retired attorney now uh but he was the uh he was uh uh
[speaker002:] retired retired
[speaker001:] in the reserves for quite a long time and uh he's active in something right now I forgot what it is that's how close I am no I don't mean that but um I he's somehow connected still with it
[speaker002:] well being from uh living in Texas you probably like cool weather on your uh vacations at least we do
[speaker001:] yeah sometimes sometimes you know when it in when it's getting really hot in Texas you know you want to go someplace cool
[speaker002:] uh yeah well usually vacation time July August September it's time to go somewhere else
[speaker001:] yeah have you ever been to Arkansas
[speaker002:] oh yeah
[speaker001:] now I've I've been but not to way up at near Branson oh I hear it's just booming up there now
[speaker002:] um yeah
[speaker001:] up around Silver Silver Silver Dollar City have you been there
[speaker002:] no no I haven't
[speaker001:] I heard on uh what was it Sixty Minutes or something a lot of the country western um people are starting to build their nightclubs up there
[speaker002:] yeah I saw the Sixty Sixty Minutes also last year we went to uh the Oregon coast and and that is really beautiful
[speaker001:] yeah oh really really
[speaker002:] and that is really beautiful and it's also unlike California completely because it's cool enough that you don't have uh the surfers much because they need protective clothing you know
[speaker001:] how about population is it very uh crowded
[speaker002:] and and uh there's really uh several nice places to stay along the coast there we stayed at what was called the uh kite capital of the world what was the name of that city place
[speaker001:] hum
[speaker002:] Lincoln City
[speaker001:] oh
[speaker002:] and it is really nice uh we a very nice place on the beach and very reasonably priced compared to California particularly
[speaker001:] oh I bet really I bet but but it's not as crowded either
[speaker002:] so in fact most of the that's right most of the Californians that uh want to stay on the coast apparently the families and so forth they come up to Oregon and Washington coast to stay because it's much uh more economical
[speaker001:] huh yeah I'd like to go up around Washington sometime to see
[speaker002:] yeah we've we've been up that way and well this that trip we also went to uh Vancouver and out to uh Victoria which is very nice
[speaker001:] yeah well I think the furthest west I've ever gotten is the Grand Canyon
[speaker002:] well you got you haven't been to California either then
[speaker001:] no huh-uh no
[speaker002:] well if you go to California don't go to Los Angeles unless you really want to just see the movie stars set up and so forth
[speaker001:] oh I won't no no no
[speaker002:] but uh San Diego and San Francisco are both very nice right
[speaker001:] really I know my grandparents have been to San Francisco years ago and they said it was real nice
