Countdown to Vacation

So what is the best possible vacation?  The one you need the most and oh, man do I need one. 

This is the first week of vacation where I am not doing any significant travel.  Like with a passport and something to convert electricity to 110 volts.  I'm staying nearby.

Friday, going to see Tony Kushner's new play "The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism, Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures".  I just hope I don't feel like the stupid homosexual when I see it. 

Saturday will be my 25th College reunion and I know of half a dozen friends that will be there.  So that's fun.

Then I'm going to garden and do stuff like paint the shutters on the house.  It's like Zen.  You get into a zone and it makes you all peaceful when you don't think too much.

Annual massive party at a friend's condo for Monday Memorial Day Holiday.  Official kick off of summer.

Tuesday and Wednesday I'm going with one of my best friends on a road trip to Iowa.  To visit one of the premier pipe organ makers in the country.  This is exactly the kind of fun I like to have.  On the way home we're visiting an historical site of Native American spiritual importance.

And then I get to come home and paint more stuff.  And maybe go canoeing.  And cook stuff.

It's great when you have a chance to live your life a little.....
