How A Texan Is Spending Summer Time (Laredo, Rice: to rent, condo)

[malfunction]

When I'm not juggling two jobs, I'll be spending some time traveling to see friends and family (separate trips). My routines won't change, as I try to stay as active as I can. I might pick up a tennis racket a little more often.

I hear you on that one. I am taking the kids to the Great Wolfe Lodge in Grapevine, we are spending three nights there. It has a huge indoor water park and lots of indoor activities for the kids. It looks pretty cool, this will be our first visit.
We also hope to make a trip to Colorado. Although, my DH will have a hard time getting me to come back.

Prob. visiting family in the People's Republic of CA (scenic, has ok weather in some places, but Ahnold and their govt. have systematically dismantled any reason to want to be there for more than a week or two). Other than that, the usual work, maybe go to see other family in state for a day or two, and messing with the AC.

Spend time by the pool. Take the stepkids to Hurricane Harbour. Take the grandkids to Randol Mill Aquatic Park in Arlington. Well, the second grandchild is just a babe, she'll be spending her time in my arms. In July we're going to Denver for my niece's wedding in the Botanic Gardens there.

I'm with the rest of y'all, in between getting out we'll be in the AC!!

It's scenic, alright. Have a great trip!

Considering how much water you'll be surrounded with, just try not to jump into the water at the Botanic Gardens.

The Botanic Gardens in Fort Worth are a really nice place to take a stroll, as long as the heat index is below 105. I plan to stay indoors when it isn't.

Before this Oklahoman turns Texan by next year, I will definitely have an answer if this thread is still around. Until then, I will be doing the work and school thing in the sooner state.

And the jasmine and fireflies, with a slight hint of DEET.
