Texsox Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 June will be two weeks in a remote New Mexico mountain cabin cataloging and possibly editing a deceased author's unpublished works. Late June possible to the Fourth of July ten days in the Pacific northwest hiking and camping. End of July a week in St. Germain, Wisconsin and Chicago with the family. I will try to fit in at least one golf coaches camp. Summers make up for the school year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Very nice Tex. We are still debating where we want to take the kids for vacation. The early front runner from my kids perspective is Legoland in Winter Haven,Florida. Has anyone ever been there? Is it worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been planning on going every couple of years to follow the blight and how nature is dealing with it. Last time was in the summer of 2009, so it's been quite a few years. I'm interested to see if I can notice any changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
