Vacation Please

Posted on December 18, 2006 12:17 PM

Well, the weather is getting colder and the Christmas lights are twinkling warmly on all the neighborhood houses as I come home from work each day. I saw snow fly a few weeks back but I don't think we've gotten any official snow yet this year, however there are a few days left before Santa comes to town. Every year when the days get cold and the nights get long, I start to get depressed and then I throw the DVD from our trip to Jamaica into the player or I watch the footage from our honeymoon cruise that we took oh so long ago.

Vacations seem like an illusion. You go away for a week or so, eat, drink, and be merry, then you get to come back to reality. Depending on the type of vacation you may get treated like a king. My wife prefers a vacation where you come back with a suntan (at the least.)

OBX/Washington D.C./Hurricane Isabel Vacation

Posted on September 23, 2003 3:38 PM

We took a vacation to the Outer Banks (OBX) in North Carolina. We arrived Saturday afternoon, and we were evacuated due to Hurricane Isabel on Tuesday at noon.

Angela and I headed back home to regroup.

The next day we were back on the road, headed to Washington D.C. We saw a lot of memorials that Wednesday, and planned to see the museums on Thursday because we knew it would be windy and rainy.

I guess we underestimated the power of Hurricane Isabel because every museum that we tried was closed due to the weather.

We got some pictures of the Capitol Building instead.
