Summer Vacation

It's been forever and a day since I had a summer vacation. My parents are visiting this week, largely for the SeaFair experience that's happening overhead for the next couple of days: the Blue Angels be dancin' in the skies! As a family of five, we used to drive all over this country for our family vacations. We vacationed in the south, vacationed to the north, vacationed out east, vacationed out west – all in the family car. Dad always enjoyed driving, plus it was always turned out to be the most cost effective way to travel. Got a lot of sightseeing done in my youth, so I'm not so hot to do it so much now (which is a mixed blessing, I believe). Ponzi and I had never walked Pike Place Market together until today… and we all rode a Dinner Train tonight for the first time. It's kinda like a mini-vacation of sorts. I can take “relaxing” in short bursts. Dad's camped out in front of the HDTV… watching TCM! Well, it's his vacation, I guess. Mom's been reading on the chaise in our stairwell picture window (but she does that even when she's NOT on vacation). Summer is starting to wind down, but my mini-vacations are just starting to warm up. What was your favorite summer / family vacation?

Chris, have you been out on the Royal Argosy yet? We enjoyed the dinner cruise more than the dinner train, and it was the best steak I've had in my life.
