I would like the farm in Wales - the benefactor would only have to buy it - we would pay to have it done up!!!

If I were granted something purely selfish, then I would want to travel around the coast of Great Britain and Ireland by car, foot, and helicopter and learn all I could about the history and geology of everything I saw.

I've been thinking and I am really torn between:

1. Having enough to purchase a modest little home in New England, pay off my car loan, and still have enough left over to live comfortably for five years.

2. Having enough to support myself and live/tour in England for one whole year.

 That would be nice some day also, and the more I learn about the family genealogy the more I am into the places over there/history,, so by the time I do get over there...it will be more "meaniful" then just an vacation.

 Modest little homes can be worth an bundle these days also, there are many ways you can travel, one of the ladies I use to see (I belonged at one time for well over 20 years, an ladies "luncheon" group) she sings in the yearly Portland "Singing Christmas Tree" live stage performance..they toured Europe here some years ago. Just look around, someday we might have our own internatonal POE picture "touring " club..you never know.
