Jenn and I are taking a vacation this week, taking a break from social media and big screens, relaxing and playing board games and such. Or at least that’s how the week started… then the entire west coast caught on fire.

My wife is taking next week off work as a much-needed vacation, pretending she’s in Mexico or somewhere nice (it will be around 90° for most of the week). I have an infinite amount of work to do, but am thinking about joining her in taking a break. I think I need it too.
We had big plans for vacations this year, including a 3-week trip to NZ, a couple trips to Ashland, etc. But now we don’t expect to go anywhere this year. Or for the foreseeable, really.
More pictures from our Hawaii vacation in 2005, to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. #ThrowbackThursday
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 24 is “frosty” (suggested by @canion). It isn’t frosty weather here at present, so searching my photo archive revealed this frosty beverage with a foldable straw from our trip to Mexico last year (remember travel?). 📷 #mbaug
Back in 2005 Jenn and I went to Hawaii to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. Here are some shots of the view from our room, with Diamond Head & Waikiki Beach. #ThrowbackThursday
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 7 is “daytripping” (suggested by @stevsmit). We’re not likely to go anywhere any time soon, but the last day-trip we took was to the Stonehenge replica in the Gorge back in February. 📷 #mbaug
Remember the Before Times, when people could travel? Back in 2004 Jenn and I visited Las Vegas. Check out that fancy video camera! #ThrowbackThursday
Our first trip to Las Vegas in 2004. #ThrowbackThursday
We have a wall of old-timey-style postcards to commemorate places we’ve visited. Since we won’t be visiting anywhere for a while due to COVID-19, we added a “Surf Your Couch” postcard to mark this time. Prints of this and other designs are available from the artist.
