So with my kid only having a few short weeks remaining in school we have been talking about taking a vacation. We are currently thinking of heading up to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky and few stops in that part of the US.
Where are you headed this summer??
My back yard is looking pretty good.
California.
Hell.
I'm going to take two week and drive all the way around Loop 12. ;-)
Looks like I'm going to head home to Alabama and go to my 20 year high school reunion... not sure exactly WHY, but that's my plan.. If I can convince Kate we need to take the S, I might head up to Tennessee and see if the Police are still watching the Dragon as closely as I've heard they are.
After we finish the house, we are planning to go to Banff, or back to Maine. Whichever has the better last minute vacations.
If any one is going to the Caribbean look at these price... http://www.worryfreevacations.com/sp...=18&ignore.y=8
Barbara and I are going to "Deals Gap" for MatG, then up the east coast to see some sights. (7/26ish)
I'd like to catch all the Aviation Museums like the Hazy and USS Yorktown.
We also plan to go see the Cape Hatteras Light while we can.
Anyone else going to "The Gap"!
We're taking a week and going to visit the in-laws in Grand Lake, Colorado in July.
I have never been on a vacation, and this year looks no different.
The ::Curls:: has been dropping hints about taking a cruise for our upcoming 25th anniversary.
I was thinking of surprising her with a "cruise" down the Comal river. Imagine the look on her face when we pull up to rent our inner tubes at the outfitters.:D
Thanks for the link Ataim, I might try one of those trips instead.
I was just 60 miles away from there a week ago, didn't know I was so close till now.:(Quote:

It's never a vacation, but I'm flying out to Albuquerque to hang out with family for a few days in June.
Several trips to the in-laws lake house. Trina and I may take a weekend trip in the Miata. We're considering the Hill Country again.

We would rather fly in and spend plenty of time on shore.
Taking a cruise to Mexico from CA with the family in August. Other than that nothing much.
We love going to Cozumel, especially in December. We always fly, the weather is in the mid-80s, stay 3 nights at an all-inclusive (El Cozumeleno), and all for $1100-1500, depending on the deals available at the time (that includes airfare for two, hotel, and inclusive meals). Snorkle one day, rent a Jeep and drive the perimiter of the island another day (stopping for a drink at each beach-side bar), and spend one day just hanging out.Quote:

We are booked on a two week cruise in September that will leave out of Rome and will travel completely around Italy and back. We have been planning this vacation for about 20 years. Can't wait!::eek02::
Wow, that sounds great! Let me know if you need me to babysit the Porsche. :drive:Quote:

If I get the opportunity to have some time off, (no more than 3 days) I'll probably go to Louisiana to see my cousin.
I'm going back out to Silver City, NM to see my cousin... then up to Santa Fe to hang out with a friend... then, if the timing works out right, I'll drive on out to LA and work/play for a week or two.
Thanks for being so thoughful but Chris said he would keep the battery charged while we were away. Normally this would worry me but I plan to pretty much stay under the influence of Italian wine the entire trip, so not so much.Quote:
