So if I get some good suggestions I might try.

I took a solo vacation in 2007 to Des Moines and Omaha!

It was a very interesting trip for me as I've had this fantasy about Des Moines and Omaha since I was in HS and Drake and Creighton Universities sent college catalogs to me.

However, neither one of those schools accepted me. I joined the USMC instead and spent many a night wondering what it would be like in one of those cities.

I was glad I went. I wasn't impressed with Drake but Creighton was very nice. However, Omaha is not my idea of a nice place. I toured the Capitol building in Des Moines and was treated like a celebrity. These kids kept coming up to me asking them to sign my autograph and to take pictures with them!

I am not making this up. It felt good to be famous for a day!

I have flown solo to a family reunion a couple of times.
