ENJOY THE RIDE
Since Karena was in Las Vegas for a conference for the last few days, we thought it'd be a nice early birthday gift if we drove out for a quick 24 hour visit.
Obviously the time spent with her was precious. Eating 24 oz. prime rib together at our favorite place Redwood Bar and Grill in downtown was delicious. And taking even 1 day out of the normal day-to-day routine was enjoyable.
One other thing I truly enjoy about the drive back and forth is that it gives you an opportunity to have meaningful conversations with the others in the car. It's always difficult to get beyond the superficial when you only have a short time to talk. But 4 hours (or less depending on how fast you drive) allows you to talk it up . . . and enjoy the ride.
