  • Tower Views June 2020
    Tower Views June 2020 Patricia’s Travels, Part 1 atricia Sargent, age 70, has traveled extensively in the US and Great Britain and P briefly to Mexico and Canada. Her photos of the places she has visited, along with her journal, document the highlights of her trips. Now that she is unable to travel, these are her memories about specific journeys. She says that the most memorable trips are “what I’ve fallen into”. Patricia’s planned journeys to places of interest began when she was in her late 40’s. About 5 years earlier, she made some life changes that made her travels possible. She sold her car and relied on public transportation and also chose not be a homeowner. Her frugality and a favorable work situation got her started. Patricia did very little traveling while she was growing up in Minnesota. At age 17, her grandparents took her to Chicago, where they enjoyed the Museum of Science and Industry and the lake. They rode on the el train, which felt new and fascinating to Patricia. A second trip to Chicago took place years later when her boss’s wife’s passed on some frequent flyer miles. This time, Patricia went to the Sears Tower and ate at a “white linen restaurant” where she had her first (delicious) spinach salad. At the age of 48 Patricia made her first trip to New York City to see a Gershwin concert at Carnegie Hall. She “scrimped and saved” for about a year and planned with a friend to make the visit happen.
