Maybe You Can Go Back Again

I'm heading down to North Carolina today for a week with my family. It's the first time all of us have been together for a full week (by choice) in a long time. The house we've rented is one we rented when I was in high school - completely renovated so it has all modern conveniences - but will definitely invoke a trip down memory lane. Will have to log into work each day but hopefully that will be restricted to mornings so I can enjoy the days.

A week on the Outer Banks was the only vacation I knew as a kid -- through college. Once I moved to New York, the trips became few and far between. The last time down was in 2000. I really can't wait to get there. The hardest part? Not seeing Tilly for more than a week. But I'm sure she'll be fine as long as Crystal gives her extra treats.

I remember spending a week there with you in college, Ellen. Seems we hit the brew through most every day for a new quarter keg. Kathleen
