    I love summer!
    Warm (and hot) weather,long days...grandkids home all day so I can see them any time I want.
    I'm going on a short road trip with friends next week and I hope to go to Texas maybe in Aug. (I know that's the worst time of year to go there....).
    Probably moving in Aug too if I can find a job in a new city first.
    What do you have planned?

    Hopefully some camping with DH's family. Spending some time at home working on general outdoor maintenance (moved here 4 yrs ago and still working to get the place looking the way we want it). Helping DH do some remodeling for DS & DIL and for DD & SIL (two more grandchildren due in the fall).

    Not a thing 'planned'. . . yet!

    If anything happens it'll just be a day or two road trip.

    We're trying to get bids on adding an addition to our house, working on the landscaping in front, and overfull with rescue dogs, so that's all time consuming. We are planning to take a road trip/vacation to Charlotte and up the east coast to see family in August.

    Just lots of quilting, naps and some housework. I retire this Wednesday and I am going to spread housework through the week. I don't like to be hot and not much on outside work.

    Our 25th anniversary is this month and we are taking a trip in July to celebrate. Other than that, it's family and work as usual.

    Had many small trips planned, but instead I'll be getting a knee replacement next week. This is painful and healing time is slow, but if I feel like anything at all, I'll be in the sewing room trying to get some gift quilts done. I can sit when I can't stand.
