Spending time with my wife.
Experiencing the beautiful early mornings and sunsets around here.
Finishing projects.

Careful for what you wish for. There might be a line!

I've been in sales for 28 years.

Working on a few leads.

(good luck on finding a GOOD guy)

I have a kid coming this summer. I think that qualifies for #1, 2, & 3 for me.

I look forward to departing Bagram [BAF] Afghanistan in June [after 5 months here]

Getting my 80 SC back on the road - after way too long in the garage

seeing my family again

Any Good thing about Astain?

Hard to limit it to just three.
I look forward to waking up every morning with my wonderful wife of almost 37 years.
I look forward to doing my gigs in town a couple of evenings each month. It's great fun to go through the play lists to try to build the feel of the show (I'm only the background music, but I have fun). It is maybe even better to get together and jam with friends, but that is more spur of the moment.
Going to work in the summertime. I work as a Heritage Interpreter at a tidal power plant and get to talk to many thousands of folks from all around the world each summer and I get to bill for my time.
Dropping the top on my little sports car on nice days and enjoying the roads around here.
Getting the hay in the barn every summer. The small of new made hay is a trigger to childhood memories.
Traveling with my wife. No exotic locations, we like the northern UK and parts of Canada away from the cities.
Life is good.

Best
Les

Tweezer,

Creme Brulee is easy! get a cook book and follow directions.
And don't waste your money on a fancy 'chef torch" from a food supply store, pick up a regular propane torch at the hardware store!

scottmandue 05-13-2013 07:04 AM
1) Working things out with my wife so we get back to being best friends.
2) Vacation in August, have not been to Vegas in two decades... wife has never been... I much prefer outdoors vacations but the chaos should be interesting.
3) Step daughter visiting, hope I can get her to take the Miata for a drive.

I think an alcohol torch would taste better.

August in Vegas is horrible. You can't even go out to the pool. It's 90º at night. October is THE month.

M.D. Holloway 05-13-2013 08:40 AM
1) Tomorrow, 2) the day after and 3) next week!

I can see that continuing on for the very long term...

Z-man 05-13-2013 08:43 AM
1. Finishing my MBA coursework on June 30, and graduating on July 12.

2. Having my mom and dad come up from Florida for graduation

3. Getting my life back after finishing school! (Including spending time with Mrs. Z, finding all my friends I've abandoned for the sake of schoolwork, getting back to the track with my Porsche, possibly replacing my 944 with a Cayman S, having freetime...etc.)

-Z-man.

But August is when Journey is playing and that is the only reason we are going, and we are chubby middle age folks... not exactly hanging at the pool types. ;)

And Vegas is built on air conditioning as long as we don't leave the hotel/casino complex we should be OK.

exc911ence 05-13-2013 09:17 AM
- Our upcoming move home to Victoria BC in three weeks!
- Motorcycle rides/Porsche drives in Beautiful BC!
- Continuing to watch our 10 month old daughter grow up!

There are more but rules are rules. ;)

OK Tweezers, you listening carefully ;) It's an old Douglas recipe so I only tell you once...

You mix sachet A with sachet B and keep stirring. Really it's not that difficult. Then give it death with a blowtorch over castor sugar.

My choices would need to be posted in PARF.:D

Laneco 05-19-2013 07:10 AM
As one of those nauseatingly cheerful people who wake up happy every day, it's hard to limit the choice to three, but here goes...

1. Time spent with my husband. His time out of country and out of the immediate area totaled almost 3 years - but that's over now. If he has to go elsewhere for work, I'm going with him.

2. Any time on my bike doesn't matter if it's the 'cross, the mountain, or the road bike. It's all good

3. Sunrises. Most people love sunsets. They're nice, but seeing the world transition from gray to daylight is what delights me. It's like watching the promise of a wonderful day unfold before your eyes.
