Welcome back...

from GW vacation!
How was your vacation? Mine was fabulous!

It is May, spring, and the sun will be out this month! Next month, June, is the rainy season, so I want to take advantage of the great weather in May as much as I can.

As many of you know, I really love nature. Over the GW vacation, I spent a lot of time outside, in nature, just some basic R & R (rest and relaxation)! I went for long walks, played tennis, had a BBQ, read books under a tree, sat in the sun a little...time went by slowly, and that was nice.

Besides that, I saw a movie, and went to a few nice restaurants, and just hung out in the neighborhood.

While on the topic of nature, below is an article I found about clean air and no smoking:

It is a short week this week...hope everyone has a good one!
