    Have you ever gone on vacation by yourself? If so, where? I never have, so I'm curious to hear from our members.

    I drove to Kansas City last minute decision during one spring break. Stayed at a hotel called "the Elms" which was known by the "haunted history" and "ghost legends". Nothing crazy happened while I stayed there. Had a pretty relaxed and nice vacation that time.

    Yes, I've gone on vacation by myself several times! One of my favorites was to western England and Wales for a week in May 2019. I have cousins in Nottingham, so I started there. Drove to Chester (a walled city) and used it as base camp for day trips to Wales and Liverpool. I went to Ladies Day at the Chester Racecourse. Drove north and spent a day at the Hillside Golf Club for the British Masters golf tournament and followed Sean Crocker, the only U.S. golfer on the tour. He still plays on the European Tour.
