Happy Adventures<br />

By: Stu Cooper / Happy Adventures<br />

When I started the <strong>Vegas</strong> Voyagers, I tried to<br />

come up with a tag line for these monthly<br />

articles. As much as I thought about this, the best<br />

I could come up with to end my article was Happy Destinations. And I<br />

have used this tag line for over 15 years.<br />

I started to think about these two words. I suppose it’s not a bad<br />

sentiment. But what does it mean?<br />

Short answer; I don’t know. The word HAPPY is easy enough. I do<br />

want everybody to be happy. Happy is a good thing.<br />

But the word DESTINATIONS? I guess what I was trying to say in<br />

those two words is that I want all <strong>Vegas</strong> Voyagers to be happy when they<br />

go; when they travel - wherever that journey may take you.<br />

HAPPY DESTINATIONS! However, I started thinking, is there a better<br />

tag line I can use?<br />

And while I was thinking about this new tag line possibility Arizona<br />

Senator John McCain passed away. What does his passing have to do<br />

with a new tag line for my monthly articles?<br />

To say the least, Senator McCain lived a very interesting, adventurous<br />

full life. The many retrospectives on his life made that very clear.<br />

In reviewing his own life’s experience, Senator McCain explained,<br />

“I’ve had an adventure-fill full life. I wouldn’t change a thing.” His<br />

words left me with the impression that, in spite of some very tough<br />

times, he loved everything about the life he lived and the adventures<br />

he had.<br />

With this in mind, I thought that all of us who are in our senior<br />

years, if at all<br />

possible, should<br />

continue to seek<br />

out adventure. It<br />

might be “soft”<br />

adventure, but<br />

seek out adventure<br />

nonetheless.<br />

And that’s what<br />

we’re are all about.<br />

Offering <strong>Vegas</strong><br />

<strong>Voice</strong> readers the<br />

opportunity to<br />

participate in new<br />

adventures. To go<br />

Senator John McCain<br />

to new places, you<br />

many never have<br />

visited. To travel with like-minded people and to continue to explore<br />

for as long as you can.<br />

While the tag line HAPPY DESTINATOIONS has served me well, and<br />

I will miss it, the better sentiment going forward<br />

is HAPPY ADVENTURES. Continue<br />

to explore, continue to experience<br />

and most of all, I hope for all of<br />

you, continue to be happy.<br />

HAPPY ADVENTURES to all.<br />
