Trip Confirmed

Well the trip around the world has been confirmed. Voyage starts on July 16th and I return August 3rd. Looks like it's around 25,000 miles and crosses every time zone speaking of which thank you Dr. Glass for the Ambien prescription. Looking forward to blogging about the trip, not looking forward to being without the family.

We're all heading to the Lake today to celebrate the holiday - fired up in that both my brothers and their wives will be there as well. Greg and Megan flew in from Baltimore yesterday, and Dan and Katie are cruising in from WFB. Major league buffet planned for the afternoon boat ride it better not rain. Aidan and I are spending the night out there so we'll how that goes. Kid grinds his teeth at night like you wouldn't believe.

Yesterday we bummed around the house and I got Aidan all excited about Final Fantasy XIII. He helped me out by firing his Boba Fett blaster at the screen while protecting himself with his plastic medieval shield. Virtual reality right there. Oh, and like every other American family we went to Chili's for dinner.

Happy 4th, everyone...
