I am seriously considering this when my lease is up in a few months. Obviously one would need a tent, a sleeping bag or some sort of sleeping roll, a mess kit, a good damp-proof lighter or damp-proof matches, and some idea of what direction to go (a compass and a map?) Also a first-aid kit would be a necessity, as would a flashlight. To prepare, I want to learn as extensively as possible about edible vs nonedible herbs and plants across the US, does anyone have a good book they copuld recommend, with color photos and descriptions, etc?

I want to start in Philly and make my way west, probably heading out as straight as possible, starting in the spring. Obviously if I'm still out when the weather gets colder I'll move my path further south. I just think it sounds like an incredible thing to do, and I want to hear from anyone who thinks they have a good idea for a supply I would need, or if anyone's done it before, I'd like to hear from you especially about your experiences!

Just returned from Venice, where I bought a Murano glass vase from the Signoretti factory on the island. Does anyone have a list of US appraisers and auction/resale value of similar items? Just wondering if the vase will appreciate in value, and worth what I paid for it. Thanks!

What do you think would make the best long weekend getaway for my husband and I to temporarily escape reality (three little boys and everyday work) We are coming from the central US which makes the western european countries slightly preferable for travel time on a short vaccation ... if you leave a 1, 2 and 7 year old with your dad the trip has to be short).

We are pretty experienced travelers. Get around on public transportation in Europe and all (some spanish and german spoken, can ask for the train in toilet in Italian and french LOL). We have visited most of the capitals, and may revist one of those. Havent done Spain or Portugal and are considering that or Malta. I want Rekjavik someday - but am saving that for the boys to enjoy too.

We may just do Paris or Rome again - it is always lovely and the metro is so easy to navigate.

What is your opinion, what was your best vaccation, is ther an obscure city with excellent architecture and museums???

Yes, I realize it is really cold in winter, but I need a major change in my life. Any Alaskans here who truly love Alaska? Anyone tried living there and moved back to the lower 48? Opinions.
