I enjoy "scenery", my wife not so much, at all, especially if it entails a lot of driving. She prefers cities, and the beach.
I would enjoy driving around Lake Superior, even driving from here out west (and I know how boring Kansas can be to traverse). I mentioned driving the Blue Ridge Parkway sometime and she asked me how long it was, and then said NO. I've taken her on the southern portions of it.
We have to drive to Cincinnati in August, her friend is having his 80th and a large deal associated thereto. The good news is our step son is flying in here and will probably do most of the driving and he drives ... fast. He droves us back from Orlando once in the GTI averaging about 100 mph.
He's a competent driver. The GTI probably handled 100 better than the Tucson.
The friend set up some private river boat excursion during the fireworks, another thing that barely interests me, and it's $500 per person, he asked us to pay, I made a face when my wife mentioned it back when, and she didn't mention it again and I didn't ask. This guy owns a condo overlooking downtown Cincy and often has a fireworks party at his place, but his wife passed on last year, she was a good cook. Anyway, this is in lieu of I guess. I went to his fireworks party once out of courtesy and then said I would pass in the future, got told it's a lot of fun.
This time I really didn't get much of a choice, anyway, the drive from here to Cincy is pretty boring for me having done it 11,000 times.
