Vacation

I have a rental house I really need to finish working on, some work to do around my house, want to put a new coat of paint on this Honda I bought last week, want to get together and jam some metal on the drums with my buds, would like to go back to Florida and do some more golfing, would like to take my kids somewhere fun, so who knows. Maybe I will just say the heck with it all and just sit by the pool and drink beer the rest of the summer. You're all welcome to join me
