General Discussion Thread 05.20.2025​

Hello, hello and welcome to a terrific Tuesday here at The GrayVine! Ally here, back again to bring you a daily dose of your favorite newsletter. I am going on a trip this week. I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve had time to myself, and so I’m really looking forward to just relaxing on the beach and feeling the sun on my skin. I’ll take photos and share them with you once I get back! But now I’m curious: If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where (and when) would it be and why? I’ll eagerly wait for your replies!

Or, if you have something else you'd like to share—whether it’s a cool fact you just learned, a funny story, or something that’s been bothering you—feel free to comment them down, too! This General Discussion Thread is created just for you, so feel free to engage with your fellow members!

Now, what's on YOUR mind today?

I would be back home in St. Louis. Even with the recent turbulent weather. Due to my disability I am unable to travel. It means I will probably not see my remaining family and friends before I die. Thank God for the internet. We cannot least stay in touch.

New Zealand and yes I have had past visits. Beautiful land and beautiful people.

I too am disabled and wish I could go back to Phoenix (Sun City) to see my folks before they pass. I don't think it will happen. I just hate it when the only time you really see all of your family is at a funeral.

During my lifetime, I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world (business and pleasure) - but if I had a magic wand, today I’d transport myself to MY ‘happiest place on earth’, Yosemite. Originally named “Ahwahnee” by the indigenous Miwok peoples, it meant “peaceful valley”.

I would want to go to Germany to visit with cousins. Unfortunately since I take care of my elderly mom who is blind and disabled I currently cannot travel there. My mom has been there several times but I never had the time when she went.
