Memorial Day weekend

In Illiois

I expect to see a policeman everyday on the road out to Walmart this weekend. They squint to check for seat belts. I squint right back.

the more safety/check roadblocks etc. you will see,
Drive carefully be alert & safe.

Have a safe one.

I just came back from vacation a couple of days ago. Just going to be staying local around this holiday weekend.

Staying home this weekend. Have one daughter and both granddaughters visiting.

Save the time off for the real summer vacation.

They're doing it piecemeal instead of raising the speed limit along the entire length of the highways. That should create nice little speed traps in the gaps around areas like Findlay, Lima and Columbus. Also, on freeways like US-24 and Route 2, the speed limit will remain 65. They really shouldn't bother raising the limit if they aren't going to do it right.

it's the dog's fault

Only local travel, but stay safe everyone!

Lake Ozark here I come.

Starting a long weekend tomorrow, I will be heading from Cedar Rapids, IA to Kansas City. Just finished updating a variety of POI files for my Garmin Nuvi (and Delorme PN) and ready to head out. For all of you who are travelling, TRAVEL SAFE. Your taking care of YOU also helps takes care of ME... and vice versa.

Anyone planning on driving north of Seattle on I-5 may want to consider alternatives as a bridge has collapsed over the Skagit River between Mount Vernon and Burlington.

In Texas the DPS and local police will be patroing the highways. So watch you speed.

Best stay-cation ever.

Just going out to dinner.

Hope everyone had a safe enjoyable weekend.

had a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend.

This is the beginning of what they call
"100 days of summer H.E.A.T."

Be sure you have current insurance, registration, and drivers license while out in case you drive into a roadside check point.

in june leaving Puyallup wa heading to Arizona to visit in-laws and outlaws via Idaho Nevada going to Williams ariz for a week. its always a nice trip and maybe take the long way back thru the north rim of the grand canyon Bryce canyon which is always a fun trip

About time...

Did a whole lotta nuthin. Perfect! Came home Sunday and repeated!

Hung out the flag. Went to see the new Star Trek movie. Nothing else. Pretty much a perfect day.

Our daughter arrived home for the summer!
Her trip was via bus connecting to a train, and given the choice between a bus leaving at 6:30 (AM) and one leaving at 10:30 (AM), she and her roommate decided to take the early one, and being college students decided the best way to do that was to just stay up all night!

Oh to be that young again!

It's great to have her home.

I was kind of surprised this past weekend, we drove a little over 100 miles to where my son lives and even though we took the back roads the traffic was really light, it seemed more like a normal day. A friend that took the interstate said traffic was abnormally light there also.

I don't know about Monday, but Sunday was just like weekday rush hour coming back home to Long Island....

Was in Baltimore on Sunday. Went to a weird little museum at the foot of Federal Hill and then had lunch and climbed the hill for the view. Lots of people just enjoying the beautiful day.

Went to New Braunfels and floated the Guadalupe on Friday (yes, during the storm) with my son, daughter and son in law. Temp went from 82 to 66 in 1 hour. Luckily not enough run off water into the river to make it unsafe to float.

Woke up Saturday morning to some of the hardest rain outside of a hurricane I have seen in years and we decided to pack up and go home for the rest of the holiday. Hung out together at home, did steaks, crawfish, etc all the rest of the holiday.

Had a ball
