If you are a creative person you may be invigorated by a trip. I know it helps me. But my best ideas, work, observations come from right where I live. I have a lot o access, know the territory and explore it freely. I guess what I am saying is the circus is always in town, they may think you are the clown…but hey, they are still buying tickets. Does this mean anything? Not sure.

Good one, Bill. Buys the tickets, sees the show.
