[terrya]

Tell us! :-)

1. Horrorfind.

The rest of the summer belongs to our 4yo and our overgrown yard.

2. Nothing terribly special - a quick jolly to Italy.

A few days in Venice; followed by about a week in Tuscany, close to Florence but in the countryside. :D

Do you and Doug (have I remembered the name, I'm terrible at names?)have plans?

[terrya]

3. No...not really.

Yes, you remembered the name (thank you).

Not any special plans. Just being together when we can. :-)

Enjoy your trip to Venice and Tuscany. That sounds wonderful, tjwmason. :-)

17. Nothing terribly special?

Venice, Tuscany, and Florence sounds incredibly special! Color me envious!

[tjwmason]

22. Remember that I'm already in Europe

The distance from here to Venice is about the same as that from you in San Antonio to Des Moines.

Granted Venice is not quite the same as Des Moines, I do know that I'm very lucky to be going.

4. To do something new every weekend.

Discover a new park, play a new sport, cook a new food or eat at a new restaurant, meet someone new, etc.

I've already taken my vacation so this should keep the summer interesting.

I'm also taking painting classes. That's fun to do outside.

5. Montreal pride end of July ...

just a long weekend. And I'll be starting my San Francisco weekend in about an hour.

6. Just Back from Sailing BVI

Two trips to the theatre district (NYC) in July and August for Plays..:woohoo: and then Hatteras Island for the week after Labor Day..B-) :loveya:

7. What's a vacation?

[BroadwayBrat]

20. Im with you on that!

I haven't had a decent vacation in over 5 years....and that includes my honeymoon (it sucked) :(

[CitrusLib]

21. I spent my honeymoon with my husband's best friend

We went skiing in Tahoe. A bunch of friends had flown out to join us. My husband can do the double black diamonds. I spontaneously fall down on flat, dry surfaces. I spent the week on the bunny slopes (or in the bar) with his best friend from Puerto Rico. Oddly enough, he wasn't a skier either. I actually had a great time.

:-)

8. Planning an extended visit in my homeland.

[MissMillie]

9. I'm probably going to have a hernia repaired

Other than that.... no.

[Magrittes Pipe]

10. Heh.

We've got a few ideas. ;)

[bicentennial_baby]

11. 3 weeks in Paris

Won an int'l travel scholarship...2 weeks studying French at the Alliance Française and a week on my own to tool around the city and surrounding areas

[Lavender Brown]

14. Wow... congrats on winning

That's awesome! :toast:

[bicentennial_baby]

15. Thank You!

I'm very excited, b/c I've never been anywhere!

[jswordy]

12. Yes, but if I told you this thread would be locked! LOL n/t

[Mutley]

13. My SO and I are going to take a week off in August

and move out of this dump! I am so sick of this neighborhood, and the people renovating the house next door, and of people around here in general. I can't wait.

[Jessica]

16. No.

My SO, who I would go on vacation with, is currently on an 18-day cross-country road trip with his dad & brother. So, all of his vacation days will be spent ... no time for me. He's promised to take me to Costa Rica in the Fall, though. So I'm not complaining. :)

[Beware the Beast Man]

18. Already had them.

Now I;m planning for October... :D

[terrya]

19. That would be a great time for a vacation!

:-)

[SarahB]

23. Not yet.

I have a good chunk of the first week in July off. I'm playing it by ear at the moment. :)

[Madrone]

24. I'm saying YES to Michigan -

In fact, one week from today, at this time, I'll be in the air!

W00t!

[Mrs_Beastman]

25. heard Chi-town is nice

maybe we will go there

[maddezmom]

26. not really a vacation, but moving to the UK at the end of July

for a few years. :D

[GOPisEvil]

27. No plans yet.

There are several trips I'd like to make, but funds and time off will limit me somewhat.

[Initech]

28. A couple of small trips, nothing major.

I plan on going to Denver in September, Chicago in August for a family function, and I might hit Boston and/or Florida if I can find cheap plane fares and hotels.

edit: If I could budget it right, I'd go to Tokyo. Korean Air has $800 plane fares going out of LAX.

[Orsino]

29. DragonCon

Every Labor Day weekend.

With three dogs and five cats, we find it tough to get away. We can manage four nights downtown, though, and we have out-of-state friends who also make the pilgrimage.

[seemunkee]

30. Costa Rica w/o kids

son is at college, daughter will be at camp so the wife and I are going to have fun. Hiking, zip lines in the rain forest, and snorkling at the beach.
