sleep meme variant

[cos]

Catching up on (some of) the LiveJournal I missed during a 16 day trip over new years, I saw a bunch of people post the "where did I sleep" meme: a list of cities or towns where they spent one or more nights last year. I've never done this one before, so I'll do 3 years at once. Partly out of laziness, because each of the past three years I've gone on a trip over new years, so doing the last 3 years together means I don't have to try to figure out which part of each trip was before or after December 31st :)

Roughly in order of when I thought of them as I mentally reviewed the past three years; not chronological, but obviously clustered by mental association. Also since this is from memory, maybe I accidentally forgot a couple of places, and maybe I accidentally put in a place that was actually from more than 3 years ago, but I don't think so.

A bit surprised that I haven't spent any nights in either New Hampshire or Maine for over three years! Less surprised that I haven't been to Southern California or Colorado in that long, though that's a big change too. But I'm about to remedy one of those with a trip to Colorado next month.

Apparently you were about 10 minutes away from us for at least one night in the last three years.

Twice, or thrice if you count Raleigh which is probably more like a half hour away. But all three were brief one evening visits, departing the following morning twice and early afternoon once. However, I totally meant to ping you for possible lunch the one time I had time for lunch the following day, and blanked on it! Oops! That was when I took vvalkyri from DC to a lindy hop dance con in Asheville last month, with a one night stop at my friends' place in Carrboro. Asheville not being that far away, we did have lunch with another friend in the area before we left the next day.
