I go to AL in March with my horse, won't make it as far as the beach. I started that as a 180 and GAL and it's become an annual tradition now.
When I was newer to this I also did a 180 trip when I left by myself for a week and went to Lake Tahoe. That is so different from anything I would usually do. I had a great time. H never asked a thing.
I think that's one nice thing about dealing with this, WE do things we never would have done before either!
