A little embarrassing...

How could an entire summer have passed since my last blog entry. Yes, this is somewhat embarrassing. My husband and I did the "staycation" that everyone is talking about. As I mentioned in April, we spent the entire summer, here at home in Florida. I know that for my snowbird friends, that sounds like torture, but don't knock it until you've tried it. As I knew would be the case, the traffic was lighter, the gulf is warm (not that I've spent any time in it lately), restaurants are easy to get into (yes, I have spent a lot of time in those) and there is a general laid back feeling that you just can't experience during "season."

But my laid back plans are coming to an end soon, as my hubbie and I are planning a month-long trip to Ireland. I will be celebrating my birthday there, hopefully in a warm, friendly pub, enjoying a Guinness with new friends. I promise to write more on this blog during that time. I even invested in a Flip video camera, so if this technologically inept travel agent can figure it out, I will be posting some video from our trip.

Stay tuned, and remember, life is too short for bad vacations.
