Thank you! I have considered renting an Air BNB for a few weeks, probably on the US west coast so I can just explore at my own pace. That would be my base and I will probably spend a few nights in hotels as I just explore the west coast. I have been to San Francisco twice and well it was too cold for this Florida man as I really do not have any good warm clothes. I have not thought about checking out B&H or Glazers as I have purchased from them before. I haven't given much thought of traveling to Europe, I am more interested in South America for some strange reason, must be the guys there! At any rate, thanks again for helping my mind to explore.
