Are you doing anything different this summer?

no trips, but being that i am so close to the beach I am making it a point to get there more often this season. I went 3 or 4 times last year. This year I'm all set up to body board, and I'm going regardless of what the wife says. I'm trying for at least once a week.

from May to September last year I was either out of town on the weekends or something major was going on. taking this year easy with only a few trips. Fam reunion up in Delaware/Maryland, that will be a great time. may go to FL for a month (help organize a football summer camp with a friend). Myrtle for the 4th, if all goes as planned. Need to get to Charlotte more often. besides that, gonna take it easy.

We're staying home this summer. We might go to the beach once or twice if we can get time in Dan's uncles condo. We're trying to save money since we had to put our kid in private school so that cuts out vacations for the next couple of years. It's ok though, it'll be worth it in the long run and there's always day trips we can take to the lake, museum or zoo.

Building treehouse for kids.

Wife going on a trip to help nursing home folks in Tennessee (week).

I'm going on trip to build a home for needy persons(week).

Will probably hit the beach a few times and do some fishing (when wife's aunt's place is available or buddy's invite me down)...otherwise home at the pool.

Sending one kid to week camp.

September/Oct I plan to do a lot of fishing...saltwater and maybe a trip to Brevard for some flyfishing. On slate to cook a pig in Sept and Nov. Next year...we're slowing down.

we typically go out to the west coast...Vancouver Island...it's beautiful there and my wife's family mostly live there...so we have a free place to stay, which is an added bonus of course. This summer, to be different, we are going to do the east coast instead...Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and PEI....can't wait.

100% of my mind, body, soul, time, and money will be spent preparing my son (and myself) to ship him off to college in August. That will pretty much consume my summer I think. Will try to get in a long weekend family trip if possible before that though.

Once all that is over, I may take a couple weeks off work and take a trip to nowhere all by myself. Not sure if I will fly somewhere remote or just hop in the car and go. Anyone ever did a trip like that?

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
