We've been there, but we'd like to go back. What're yours?

I have two:

1. Hawai'i. I went there in high school with the school band my sister and I were in. I'd love to go back and see Pearl Harbor again.

2. San Francisco. This was the final stop on our road trip up the Pacific Coast Highway, which started in San Diego. I think I'd appreciate San Francisco more now that I'm older. Also, I kinda put a buzzkill on the last day of the trip because I got food poisoning. If it wasn't coming out one way

, it was coming out the other

. I'd like to rectify that for myself.

Apart from Scotland, you mean?

I love the Grand Tetons. When I was a kid we camped all the way across the country and back again, and my most vivid memory still is Medicine Bow, Wyoming. The wolves howling a duet with the wind at night, and the clouds so big and so defined they looked like they were carved out of snow-white marble, reflected in the lake. It reminds you how small you are, and how young our whole kind is, compared to the earth.

This doesn't really qualify as a vacation, but once in 1992, while on a run in my 18 wheeler, I broke down in Course d' Alene, ID, and was taken in by a guy who found me waiting for a tow truck. He stayed with me until the truck arrived, and then took me to his home and he and his family treated my like one of their own. They treated me to a wonderful country dinner than night, then took me on a horse riding trip into the hills nearby. The scenery just made my heart sing, and I vowed that this was where I would retire. Until then, I would very much like to spend time vacationing there. I understand they have some spectacular golf too!

I would love to revisit Hawaii, Australia, and New Zealand.

I'd also love to visit Ireland for the first time.

I just got back from an eight day road trip through BC, and all I want to do is go back. It has to be the most beautiful place on earth. I took over six rolls of film.

I'd like to go back to Oregon! How beautiful that place is! Wow!
