Today is the first day of my summer vacation. The kids have been out for a couple of weeks, hanging with Jodi while I finish up my temporary full-time gig. Let's just say I'm not the type of person who works full-time. It seriously kicked my ass. I lost all sense of myself being stuck working for the man. Damn! Well, now I'm back to my casual self working when I want, on my terms. Ahhh...this is the life. That is what the kids and I call summer vacation "this is the life." It's hard to start summer vacation so late though. I have so many fun activities that I know September and the Ph.D program will be here before I know it. But for now, I'm going to kick back, relax, and let the fun begin.

First up, Back to the 50s car show with Ben's parents. It's at the state fair grounds which means fair food. Not to the extent of the Great State Fair, but rumor has it that there will be cheese curds and Sweet Martha's cookies. There is almost no better way to kick off my first day of summer but with a little State Fair primer.
