Carol was very generous to gift me all of her frequent flyer miles on American Airlines.
When I was in my 30's, I read Earnest Hemingway's "Green Hills of Africa" and decided I really wanted to go on an African hunting safari. I dashed right out and bought an elephant rifle then started to reseach the cost of an African hunting safari. When I found out that a Hemingway style hunt would be the price of a house I knew that it never was to be. I stashed the elephant rifle in the back of a closet for the next 40 years. When the option to go on an African Photo Safari presented, I pulled out the rifle and sold it to help pay the cost of the trip.
