My best vacations are in my own house when my wife and kids are visiting her mom. I'm serious.
I also love getting down to Chicago, my hometown, every few months. I'm going in mid-November for a concert but I'm thinking of going Saturday as well because my family is busy and I'll have time. Tempting, I tell you, tempting.
Those extended family trips, if I'm hearing you right, Mark, wear me the fuck out. That's not a vacation to me!
Dave, you want to swing by Wisconsin about February, we'll talk about cold, sir...


RA, the Badlands are amazing, but I love the Black Hills even more. If I believed in something supernatural, I'd believe (like the Lakota) that it was centered in the Black Hills.


Weird. Maybe that's why this enviroment looks so familiar to me.
Deja view. :)


I like to go here, Hanauma Bay, on Oahu. I try to go every two or three years.
Speaking of Princess Leia, that is who I am dressed as, right this minute. The wig is giving me a headache.

Every summer we spend a week on Orcas Island in a cabin right on the beach. I do nothing but eat and read, and watch the boats and water.
For the past 5 years, every Christmas Richard and Jake go away, usually back east or somewhere to meet up with his family. THis year they are spending a week in NYC. Tempting, but not really. I've been counting the days before my time alone for a month now. I love it.
Sarah, I can't believe how sterilized and Disny Times Square has become. I kind of miss alittle of the seedy side.
Mark, Lake Placid is gorgeous.

We didn't go anywhere this summer because of my daughter's wedding.



8 shows! Which ones?


I used to love going to Cornwall which is in the South-West of England, I haven't been in years because it is now cheaper and quicker to fly to Turkey.

Negril, Jamaica (Best rum EVER)
Napa, California (Hello Pinot Noir)
Key West, Florida
New York City, New York
Chicago, Illinois
Wish List
Italy - ANYWHERE
Greece (Santorini in particular)
Ireland (Dream would be to rent a car and just dive around the entire island)
Tour London via one of the gastro-pub tours! Nothing like sleeping in your local pub!

As for vacations, I'm going with Topsail Island, NC. Again, this is a family trip. We rent a huge house for a week and all stay there together. This place is nice because it's not as fast paced and crazy as a lot of summer destinations. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about having a good time but sometimes you need a week to relax without thousands of people buzzing around you.
