No vacation for me this year, my wife is due to have our 2nd any day now. This summer will be adjusting to a new baby.

I'll be looking forward to next year's vacation like crazy!

I hear ya, as I'm in the same boat...two girls thus far. Congrats!

No vacation plans until September...taking the 3rd through the 13th off. Going to see Jimmy Buffett at Nissan on the 3rd (saw him 10 years ago at Nissan, been trying to get back ever since, finally got tickets this year), then heading to the beach for the rest of the time.

No significant vacation for me for a while. I have a family reunion in upstate NY in mid-July, but I'll only be up there for two nights.

In September however, my girlfriend and I are going down to Florida for about a week. We're staying at my family's place on Siesta Key Beach (SW Florida near Sarasota) for a few days, then driving up to Gainesville to visit some friends and go to the UF-Tennessee game. With all the mouthing off Lane Kiffin has done, it will be great to see Tebow and Co. stomp out those Vols in the Swamp. I'm just hoping it's a night game.

So any plans of her being your fiancee by the end of this summer?

Absolutely. Already have the stone picked out. I'm working with a jeweler who is also a family friend. I went to his house the other night to look at a bunch of loose diamonds he brought home. I know I've mentioned engagement off and on here for the past year or so, but it's actually happening this time, and soon. I'll keep you posted.

Plus I know how happy it would make my girlfriend to have that ring on her finger when we go down to Florida see her family (forgot to mention the last day of our trip will be spent in Orlando with them) and all of our friends in Gainesville.

I've been to that beach several times (Grandparents live in Venice). White sand beach with sandbars that create decent sized waves for the Gulf. Very nice...

It's gorgeous down there. My mom and stepdad own a two bedroom/two bath condo RIGHT on the water. I mean, if the lanai wasn't screened in, you could throw a baseball into the gulf. The place is right on Crescent Beach (a segment of Siesta Key Beach). It's one of best places I've ever been. The Travel Channel said it's one of the top 10 beaches in the world. Needless to say, I'm stoked to get back down there. It's been two years.

As a matter of fact, my girlfriend and I have talked about getting married right there on that beach. We think it would be great to exchange vows with our feet in that white sand during a southwest Florida sunset.
