With Every Thought

Arrive at your destination with, no clothes. Yes, you read that right.  Here is the challenge.  Pack your suitcase with only your undergarments and necessities. Maybe even skip on the jewelry too. When you arrive at your destination, go to a thrift store or a local boutique, and purchase clothes to wear while you're on your vacation. You'll leave with items that aren't your regular souvenirs. When you're home and you're wearing those times you'll remember your trip and you might even cherish those items when they bring back fond memories.  Will you take this challenge? 

Familiar smells and sounds.  The smell of rain on the pavement.  The sound of snowplows in the midst of the night.  The smell of my college perfume. Bringing me flashbacks to broken hearts, cheap alcohol, all-nighters "studying," and endless amounts of crying on the floor.  Hearing little footsteps on hardwood floors. Hearing giggles with tiny teeth showing.  The scent of pumpkin pie and burnt bread during the holidays.  The scent of fresh coffee at the local coffee shop.  Walking down the aisles of a store and smelling a scent that reminds me of my experience in the Navy. These flashbacks 101 days stream so fastly in my mind in seconds. That makes a long-lasting depressing feeling for hours.
