The Perfect Vacation Spot

Gulf Shores Alabama

My most recent trip to Gulf Shores Alabama was nothing short of spectacular. The weather was perfect…the condo was amazing, and I got to enjoy an entire week with the most beautiful woman I know…my wife. If you haven’t ever spent some time in this part of the states….you are missing out. The past several years we have spent our vacations in Gulf Shores. It is so peaceful and quiet…unlike Panama or Daytona and other places in Florida. You have the beach to yourself for the most part. That is what is so great about this beach. When I was younger in the college scene….Panama and other places were appealing to me for the party and social scenes. Now I love to get as far away from that scene as possible when I am vacationing. The price is great for condos in this area, and the food is great. Lots of area attractions if you are into that. So if you are planning a vacation in the near future….checkout Gulf Shores…you won’t be disappointed. This is not a promotional ad….just wanted to share a special place with you. Where is your favorite get away spot?

The Blahs

Ever had one of those days when you just had no motivation?  You can think of a million things you need to do or needs to be done…but you just can’t seem to make the first move toward getting started.  Hours drift by and you still haven’t much more than moved from the bed to the couch.  Today is one of those days for me.  Let me know about the kind of day you are having.

The Perfect Day

What ingredients go-in the makeup of the “perfect day?” Well…for me, there are three main ingredients: family, sunshine, and meat on the smoker. I love it when my family comes home for a couple of days and the weather is good for firing up the smoker. The sounds of the family laughing and talking about various topics with the smell of smoking meat in the air as we gather round the pool sipping on our favorite drink is invaluable to me. It is a touch of heaven. What is you perfect day like?

The Honey Do List…..

Who isn’t familiar with the old dreaded “honey do” list. I teach high school in Kentucky. I look forward to going golfing, fishing, running, long stays in the pool, the hammock. My lovely wife who works through the summer always seems to compile and publish her list each year in May……just about time school is out in Kentucky. What great timing huh. Can you relate?
