View Full Version : Vacations
Ricardos4ever 03-22-2004, 10:22 PM I know that Lucy and Desi took some trips to Europe and Hawaii during the 50s -- but I never recall hearing anything about where they traveled to in the 40s (other than the various spots around the country that Desi's band was playing and Lucy's stops when she was touring with the theatre). Does anyone know where they traveled to, if anywhere, during their first decade of marriage?
SPLAIN 03-23-2004, 10:43 AM I think you hit the nail right on the head, they were struggling financially because they loved to live well, and he travelled with his band and she for pictures all the time so they treasured their time at the ranchito more than travelling.
Lodee 03-23-2004, 05:13 PM Well they traveled somewhere because I've seen pics of them in the snow. :)
SPLAIN 03-23-2004, 05:32 PM Well, i didn't say they NEVER went away, Sun Valley was a favorite place of hers, actually, any place that had snow was a favorite of hers.

And since in Cuba it doesn't snow I bet it was a favorite of his too :)
SPLAIN 03-23-2004, 05:49 PM But i thought you said he almost never went back!
crazyredhead 03-23-2004, 06:40 PM I think she's talking about Sun Valley...
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 11:38 AM Sun Valley was Ann Sother's favorite place so she told Lucy about it and Lucy loved the snow, i'm sure Desi didn't, coming from a hot climate like he did.

I come from a hot climate and love the snow!:D
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 02:11 PM Yes dear, but when one gets it once every ten years like you do in Texas, then i would LOVE it too, LOL! Try six months of it with below zero temperatures, then get back to me!

I meant back in Puerto Rico, not Texas!:D
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 04:13 PM Oh, so sorry! Good Point then!:lol:
Lodee 03-24-2004, 04:45 PM But still, like splain said, it sucks when it's everyday for 6 months compared to once a year in Texas. You're lucky to live where it's warmer desilover. (at least I think so) It's 48 degrees here today and that's considered a heatwave. Plus it sucks when your electric bill is more than your mortgage!!!! And your heat is at 60 and you're freezing and the bill is more than your paycheck so you can't buy any ebay stuff and you...............aw never mind. I'm done. :)
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 04:56 PM Then maybe you should consider voting for someone else in the next election, you are certainly NOT better off than you were four years ago, LOL!:lol: Too hard to resist hon, and your posts are very funny. I can relate, we have more hydro power than almost any other place in the world, so we sell it to the Americans cheaper than what WE pay for it, my electric bill for winter could keep Nancy Reagan in red dresses for a year!
Lodee 03-24-2004, 05:00 PM You might not say that if you'd seen me 4 years ago!!!:eek:
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 05:07 PM Oh, sorry, you must be that exception to the rule they're always talking about. Good luck on the future though.;)
Lodee 03-24-2004, 05:25 PM I was joking! I don't even remember where I was 4 years ago, but I'm not worse off, I don't think.
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 05:29 PM You are TOO, every time you gas up for one thing, and that trillion dollar debt means each American owes 24 thousand dollars. Jobs are going to foreign countries and only the rich are getting richer. Isn't it disgusting that Mel Gibson will make 500 million dollars off his one movie, because he put his own money into it, so after everything DVD's and pay tv and videos, he will make 500 million dollars, that's just crazy! Kate and Ashley are worth a billion? Something's wrong somewhere.
Lodee 03-24-2004, 05:35 PM I'm quiting while I'm ahead............................;) Love Ya........
SPLAIN 03-24-2004, 05:36 PM I lova ya too, who cares about politics, they're all in it for the money, are in the exclusive CLUB where they fill up their pockets while we struggle to make ends meet. Maybe one day it will finally change!:rolleyes:
