Tired of Winter?

Just when you thought the Ron Paul blimp was the best, check out the inflatable cruise ship. What purpose does it serve? Who knows. But it just goes to show that people will buy anything these days.

I've been warned that I've maxed out my vacation time this winter.. But for those of you who haven't, and are sick of snow, snow, snow and more snow. Or rain. Or ice. This just in, there's a travel expo Tuesday night at the Ioka Theater from 7 to 9 p.m. It's been coordinated by local travel agent Kathy McNeill and is sponsored by American Express Vacations and Royal Caribbean International. I'm going despite the moratorium on vacations. Who knows, maybe there will be a giveaway.
