Mexico anyone?

So every time I listen to Kim Richey it makes me want to get in my Explorer and drive to the Gulf of Mexico. Or California. Or any somewhere other than here.

Maybe I should become more financially strict about savings and take a trip every three to six months. Just get in and drive somewhere, finding hotels, restaurants, random women, and 12-step meetings along the way. (Not necessarily in that order.)

That kind of life has always appealed to me. But material security also appeals to me, and I can't seem to find the balance between the two. I don't want to be irresponsible, just free. Does that make sense? How do we create that sense of adventure in everyday life?
