    Going skiing in Vermont for the whole week after Christmas. Always a great time, if you ski.

    I dunno, I've never gone on christmas vacation with you guys.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Christmas is the busiest time of year at our bookstore such the "Christmas vacation" is an oxymoron. :)

    My wife wants to go visit her relatives in Florida (Fort Myers?). Normally, that would be fine with me, but they're snowbirds who live up here during the spring-summer-fall, so we see them around here all the time anyway.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say they HATE tourists but it's definitely overrated and overpriced. We visited several years ago but only because my husband's family used to live there and wanted to revisit a few spots. I wasn't impressed and have had other friends say the same.

    yes, but is your dickie shiny? Norm, you really need some more sequins in your life. And fringe. I have one for dcfaithful too. I know how you boys like your sequins and fringe. The bolo ties will be the icing on the cake.

    sequins doesn't go well with my coloring and really, who doesn't enjoy fringe! bolo ties are for the summer

    Tahoe, now that's some place I would definitely like to go back to. Loved it there. All I remember about Sacramento was how flat it was. :) But I only really saw the airport and drove to Tahoe from there.

    it was a business trip and i think we were there for 4 days.
