The Crew season ended this past weekend with Stotesbury, so now it's just the final couple weeks. There had been a chance the kids would need to spend this week cleaning the boats and prepping everything for storage, but they were on top of things when they got back from Stotes so no more late pickups.

Sounds like you have a busy summer ahead! I hope you find some time to relax and 'vacate'!!

We have a standing week vacation every year. Zoe brings a friend and we meet my mom at the beach and laze around. It's weird to think we'll (probably) only have a couple more of these trips before she's got her own stuff going on that doesn't allow for a week at the beach.

We were fortunate to share a cottage owned by Grammy when I was little, and then my Dad was able to buy one nearby when we were a little older. They were near each other on a big lake outside Plymouth, Mom was with us all summer, but Dad was a firefighter and commuted. He'd be 'off' two days, then back in Boston for three, etc. At some point in the summer he would get a whole week as 'vacation time'.
