Change of Life Plans - Brady

Well, change of plans. I will no longer be going to graduate school. I'm moving to Folly Beach, South Carolina and opening up a roadside stand that sells ice cream and Tokyo crepes. 

Just kidding. :) But if there's one place that would tempt me away from Chicago, it's Charleston. I love how pretty and historic the city is, and Folly Beach is such a fun, laid-back, quirky town. 

We've had a great couple of days. Great condo, lots of beach time, cute stores, trips to the one market close-by, really good food, one trip into the city already for drinks at a rooftop bar, and a fancy dinner at S.N.O.B. there tonight. It's hot hot hot, but that only makes it more fun because we spend a lot of time swimming.

Mystery Trip - Brady

Kevin, Amy, and I embark tomorrow evening on Amy's mystery trip! We'll meet Kelly at our destination.

We're supposed to have wireless access, so we'll try to post while we're there. Maybe I can actually get Amy to write something for once. :)

To review, here were the five instructions we gave Amy:

1) Prepare for a long car trip. You'll probably have the whole back seat of the Prius to yourself to spread out.

2) Since this is your trip, music will basically be your choice, so bring your iPod if you want. Kevin and I have an adapter already in the car.

3) Pack for warm weather and water. Where we're going will probably be in the 80s during the day and the 70s at night.

4) Probably pack at least one nice outfit. Not super fancy, just something you could wear to go out to eat.

5) You won't need a ton of spending money, but I'd bring along what you can for some meals and maybe some shopping.

Any ideas where it might be???

To Amy: Mystery Trip Instructions - Brady and Kelly


Kelly and I, as a graduation gift for Amy (and kind of for ourselves, too), are taking her on a "mystery trip." She has no idea where she's going, so we need to give her an idea of what to pack.

Amy, here are your five simple instructions.

1) Prepare for a long car trip. You'll probably have the whole back seat of the Prius to yourself to spread out.

2) Since this is your trip, music will basically be your choice, so bring your iPod if you want. Kevin and I have an adapter already in the car.

3) Pack for warm weather and water. Where we're going will probably be in the 80s during the day and the 70s at night.

4) Probably pack at least one nice outfit. Not super fancy, just something you could wear to go out to eat.

5) You won't need a ton of spending money, but I'd bring along what you can for some meals and maybe some shopping.



Hmmm...where could it be?


Indianapolis?

Colorado?

Florida?

Detroit?

Maybe Baltimore to visit Aunt Stacey?

Camping?

Seattle?

Mexico?

Canada?

Fort Wayne?

Europe?

Minneapolis?

New York?

California?

Central Perk in New York City?

Stars Hollow, Connecticut?


Maybe where this all started - Bloomington?
Maybe some sort of sporting event?

Michigan?

Arizona?

La Porte?

Chicago?


A pretty bed and breakfast?

Lake Wawasee?

To anyone else reading this, if you know where we're going please don't tell or even hint to Amy about it. We want the destination to be a complete surprise.

Thanks!
