Well, it’s more like a trade-off than a sacrifice. We’re giving up our annual vacation to the City of Avalon on Catalina Island. Our wedding anniversary falls in the middle of September and we generally go back to Avalon, where we were married, to celebrate.
We’ve gone to Catalina for the last five years straight, but we’re not going this year. Instead, we will be going to the Gun Blogger Rendezvous in Reno, Nevada. We will spend our anniversary at the Silver Legacy Hotel among the ranks of some of the Gun Bloggers.
We look forward to going next month, but we will also miss some of our favorite Avalon places, like the Casino, where this world-famous art-deco image of a mermaid lives.

Well have a great time!
Thanks for the good wishes.
We’re looking forward to a great trip via Yosemite, historical gold rush country, Lake Tahoe and the Owens Valley. Reno, of course, is the centerpiece of all this.
We’ll report our progress when we get on the road.
