Summer Plans, anybody?
 
These sound good:

"Is there an alternative to stressed-out rush-rush hypercompetitive summer travel? Yes: You can summer in place.

To summer in place means you've got Bob Marley on continuous play, the grill fired up pretty much around the clock, beverages on ice in a jumbo cooler, and you're operating on Jamaican Standard Time. Your hairstyle must go on sabbatical.

You've seen someone summering in place before. Walks around in nothing but a pair of ratty shorts and T-shirt, day after day. Scratches the belly aimlessly. Needs a shave desperately. Always seems to have a beer in hand, and getting ready to let loose with a serious belch. And her husband is the same, only grubbier."

With maybe a few day trips to the Eastern Shore for some crab?

Sounds like my summer!

A few day trips anywhere around the Chesapeake Bay or the Potomac River sounds good to me. With or without crabs.

Just sit along the edge of the river or bay and watch the water moving. Very mellowing.

:)

Must do that soon. Thanks for the reminder, Seek. :wave:

I am going to a game convention :D

Other than that it will be the odd day trip to Montreal or Kingston.
