Paris or Montana?

Today’s big chore was washing the slipcover. My slipcovers are made of denim. So, like my Levi’s, my slipcovers shrink up in the wash. Getting them back on is a battle.

Whilst wrestling with the slipcovers, I pondered a potential holiday for Peg. I thought about renting an apartment in Paris. Also, considered knocking off an entry on my buck list – cross North America by train. Before, the Republicans take over and kill off Amtrak. This would involve a visit to Montana. It is a little late to get desirable lodging near Amtrak stations in in Montana. So, if it is Montana – I need to spring into action ASAP. Carlton is mildly interested in going to Montana by train. My idea would be DC to Chicago overnight on the train. Spend a day or two in Chicago – go the the Shedd Aquarium.  Then back on the train for another 24 hours and hop off in East Glacier for 4 or 5 days.  Take in Glacier National Park. Then back on the train – in another 24 I’d be in Seattle. And a plane ride away  from home.

The apartment in Paris would be easier. And, maybe more fun.
