The nation’s weather is going to my head! I want to getaway via Lenny Kravitz style. Little trivia here! My family and I are major Aerosmith fans, so at the concerts we usually sit in the first few rows due to our status in the fan club for the same cost as the nose bleed seats! Well at one Aerosmith concert Lenny Kravitz opened for Aerosmith and he gave my son his Fiji Water Bottle. I guess that may be as close as I ever get to Steven Tyler.
Well I don’t really have time right now to jet away to Fiji,
so I think I started thinking where do I want to go right now?
Well if you have ever heard Lenny sing his “I’ve got to getaway!” melody you may know that with the current weather situation in many parts of the country, presently we all want to get away! I want to jet away to somewhere that feels far away and somewhere WARM! I need the sun shining down on me warming me up to the bonesHere are a few places that I spotted recently to put in my “Goblet List”. If you don’t have a goblet list you must.
