I have been tasked with the grueling chore of designing a weekend getaway from Dallas using Membership Rewards points.
I know! I know!
It is pure torture!
I live 20 minutes from DFW airport and would like to come up with something fun, fabulous and a bit off the beaten path.

American Express is also placing 150,000 Membership Rewards points in my newly opened rewards account to plan this trip. Thanks American Express!




















I think you should take a trip out to Boulder, Colorado. You can go by car- take a road trip!! It’s a memorable trip through beautiful land! Once there, go hiking and just explore the area. It’s so wonderful there at any time of the year. You’ll love it!
Put together some great tunes for the trip. Be sure to bring the Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid cd by Bob Dylan along for the ride. It’s perfect when you hit Arizona and Colorado.
Looking for advice on planning trips to visit National Parks. But then we’d also love to make a trip to Ireland. Plus, I’m wanting to coordinate a Bloggers meet-up at Sisters Quilt Show. Definitely we need help!

Fly to NYC of course. Come see a Broadway show, drive out of the city to the Northfork of Long Island to go winery hopping and then come back to the city for a frozen hot chocolate at serendipity. Or just do some shopping downtown and people watch in Central Park all day 🙂
You should Fly to Florida and go to Walt Disney World.
You must fly by plane so you don’t waste time and you can get there so much quicker.
You should have breakfast with Mickey and Minnie and all their friends

Go somewhere new.
Travel by car, so you have options
Get lost with your SO and leave the camera and phone at home. (well take the phone for emergencies) But just leave all behind and enjoy each other just for awhile.
You should go somewhere by automobile. I’m thinking a cool corner of the American southwest. Camping and hiking, back to the Earth.
