turn out the lights...the party's over...

so today's the last day of the blog party. for me, it seemed to start with a BANG but is ending with a whimper.

if you played, what did you think? did you make any new friends this week?

............................and...................................

i'm looking for some ideas for something quick to do over the weekend. any weekend. i'm dealing with some serious cabin fever.

we haven't taken a vacation since...crap! 2004. we usually go in October (kids are back in school, weather has cooled, but isn't too cool), and in '05 i had my surgery, then last year B was having some rough times @ work, so he didn't feel right going off for a week.

so what can be done in a weekend? (don't say Vegas, we've got gas at almost $3/gal, and i don't wanna spend money to spend more money once i get there)

ideas. i need 'em. happy Friday, all!

I have no idea what to do for a fun weekend in sunny so Cal. My idea of a fun weekend is staying home (yep I am offically a hermit now!) How bout a museum? the zoo? or cozy up on the couch with some old movies? See? I told you I have no idea!

Whatever you do, have a good one!

Not sure what you're into but how about a 3 or 4 day cruise? Or maybe drive to Monterey or Cambria to tour the Castle if you haven't already done that. I know that we don't do the touristy stuff in our own home town so it's a thought. :)
