You often don’t realize how much you have thought and planned and wanted until you go back and review journal entries. I have kind of gotten lost here in balancing forward looking with daily living; however, in writing here recently I reread my element posts and went “ah, yes. I do have ideas about what’s next.” So I’m writing down another idea I’d like to do within the next year, a fun little project. There’s a trail of markers (1148 of them to be exact) throughout France. They mark the march of Patton’s Third Army from Sainte-Mère-Église to Bastogne. Along the road which is comprised mostly of small B roads through little French hamlets, you will see some amazing French sites. I did this trip 2 years ago and there is very little available on the internet (unless you speak French). Given that I figured out how to find and follow the markers, I want to write a travel book about it for Americans. So here’s my little note which someone will cheer in 6 months so I won’t forget.

If you’d like to read a little more about it, wikipedia has a nice synopsis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Road_(France)
