Vacation
« on: May 31, 2007, 11:28:52 AM »
What's up my sly fam.?  Just got back in town Monday afternoon.  My mom and step-dad had rented a place in Nags Head, NC and invited me, my wife, and son to stay.  I couldn't pass it up especially since I haven't been working in over a year and dead broke.  It was great.  I definitely needed that get away after being couped up in my grandmother's house with her and my son for a year.  I was just wondering what, if anything special, did anyone else do over the holiday weekend?  Like I said, I just got back Monday and haven't really been on the forum for about a week so if there has already been another thread like this one...Sorry.

Went to Hilton Head SC for a long weekend.  Shaved the dome for the first time.  Got plenty of sun and saw plenty of women.  Came home, washed all the trip residue off the Jeep (smoke and bugs).  Now sitting back and chilling.

I'm waiting for someone to say they went to Bald Head Island... :*))

I was "Tim The Tool Man Tyler" this weekend and fixed up a bathroom in the house.

Both me and you brother! Got work done on the bathroom, both by me and the plummer dudes.
 
 Also did lots of yard clean up for the upcoming sale of our house...running like a madman to get it done!

SPF 30 worked real good in the sun for 8+ hours straight! O0

No vacation for this dude....YET!!!

Had a schrotini fest on Friday, Barbeque and drinks with neighbors and friends Sunday.  Memorial Day with best bud, another vet for ceremonies and more drinks.

Saturday was a kids' birthday party AND a neighbor's daughter's graduation party (hottie)
Sunday we went to Tahoe for the day to "de-winterize" the cabin and went for a hike.
Monday was pool party & BBQ time.

Now it's back to work ...:Xo!

I was out in the yard all weekend trying to light up my friggin' yard.  That's the price I pay for using low voltage instead of solar. It looks a lot better though. I did manage to kill two bottles of Sauza, but only 1 bottle of margarita mix. Maybe that was part of my problem.......

Doesn't sound like a problem to me.  Sounds just right as Schro mentioned.   O0

My family went to Sarasota FL for a much needed vacation.  Everyone said well you just got back from a 12 day stint in Haiti..what you going on vacation for?  CAUSE I CAN.  While in FL we really didnt do much ...got to go to Disney for free though..cant beat taht ..thanks to family that works at Disney..saved us about $400 bucks.  Mostly just went to the beach and to the pool at my wifes bosses place...in which that saved us another $1000 bucks that we didnt have to spend on hotel.  So really all we spent was money on gas and food.  Not bad ehhh.  Now I begin to plan the next trip to Haiti which is coming up in about 6 months
