Vacation time!

It's finally here! After months of anticipation, it's finally time for a break. This Saturday we head down to Perdido Key, Fl for a week of relaxation on the beach. By 10:30 Saturday morning we'll be in Panama City getting in the car for the drive to Perdido Key. It looks like the drive will take about three hours if we don't stop at all. We'll most likely take our time since the rest of our vacation crew won't be arriving until the afternoon and the drive looks like it will be pretty amazing. Karen's parents and her brother with his family are all meeting us at the condo.

We don't have a ton of activities planned during the week. I'm looking forward to a fishing trip that Andy set up. We meet with Captain Jack at 06:00 for a five hour fishing adventure. We'll be fishing in-shore, but it looks like there are still some huge fish waiting to be caught.

I'll also be taking a quick trip away from work in the middle of vacation. My company is holding its annual RnD Summit the week that I'm on vacation. A few days into vacation I'll be flying back to Kalamazoo for about 24 hours. I'm scheduled to give an hour long presentation on my project. I'm also nominated for a 'Synergy' award so there's a big formal banquet and awards ceremony that I'll be attending. About an hour after my presentation I'll hop back on a plane and finish up my vacation. Hopefully this little interuption doesn't interfere too much with my relaxation!

I hope everyone's having a great spring!
