It doesn't get much better than that. Make it "very light"; it'll be hard, but we can live without you for a week ;)
Good job - your priorities are in good order.
My dad and I have made a tradition of touring the Grapefruit League in Florida every year. We started in 1992, and with the exception of 4 years when I was in college, we've been every year.
I leave Atlanta, pick him up in SC, and then we drive down to Florida. Our trip starts next Thursday.
Enjoy your time with your son. I can tell you, from my own experience, that he will appreciate those trips and that time spent with you more than you can ever imagine.
John,
I would have to agree with JoeDuck and say your priorities are right and I hope you are rooting for the Cubs. I miss starting spring in Chandler and riding my bike to games.
Have fun!
There are times when I wish I lived in the States.
The start of the baseball season would have to be one of them.
We saw Billy Crystal's "700 Sundays" a couple of weeks ago - absolutely amazing.
His passion for the game (and everything else he talked about) was just fantastic.
So good for you for making the trip & escaping the computer for a few hours... try to make it a few days!!
Have a hot dog for me.
Mike (Melbourne - where the F1 cars are currently very noisy!)
hmmm... why not try audio visual blogging as an experiment - this would be great when reporting at conferences or expos from your laptop.
