Half a Loaf Is - Forget It

The Johnsons' vacation in Island Bay
To get there they drive an awful long way
   Over hill, over dale
   Then across dusty trails
 They check in and get to stay half a day

This sums up why I never want to"vacation" anywhere again; I prefer my "stay-cation"

Sometimes we go so far to get away, to find we are still in the same place... with ourselves... Great write. Ann

They could have just as much fun and a longer stay in their local state park, methinks.

I'm sure that trek gets pretty old; The upside is the bread won't mold...
