Travel by car.
Babysit grandkids, although at 10 & 12 it’s more just make sure they stay out of mischief.
Go to car shows and cruise-ins.
Host one car club’s national convention here in late summer.
Get a deck built for Mrs RNUG. And a bit of kitchen remodeling.
Not necessarily in the above order.

Kids are in school until mid-June, then summer camp, 4th of July trip to see grandparents, up to Minnesota for a lake house getaway in late July, maybe a weekend road trip or two in August, and then kids go back to school late August.
If I blink, I’ll miss it. I remember when summer used to last forever. Now, it’s gone before you even realize it started.

It was “buy alcohol after 10 PM,” but it looks like I’ll have to add something else to the list if the mayor has her way.

A couple float trips on the Meramac and Black rivers.
A fishing trip for my Dad’s 70th.
Ship the kids to each Grandma’s for a few weeks. (Grands really missed that last year)
Watch some little league baseball.

Beach trip.
My son’s t-ball games.
Visiting family for the first time since the pandemic started.
Hopefully a Cubs game.
As much swimming and lake time as possible.

Watching the trial of Tim Mapes unfold and, maybe, watching Tim Mapes fold.

A wedding to attend. Have to respect my Father’s final request and spread his ashes. Then work. More work. Maybe get a chance to fish. Work was busy during the pandemic, no signs of slowing down as the pandemic ends. Somewhere in the summer I need to find time to sit, relax and enjoy life.

1. Ravinia (under their rather limited schedule and mostly classical concerts which will be less crowded.)
2. Baseball (the South Side Variety)
3. Enjoying the fruits of our neighbor’s garden (which of course we are helping with the upkeep and harvesting).
5. Possibly a HS class reunion.

Move outta Illinois. Retiring this year and moving out this summer. Goodbye high property taxes.

Put one foot in front of the other. Continue to be a caregiver for elderly parents.

=== Move outta Illinois===
If you leave now, it’s a sellers’ market…
To the QOTD,
Making up for a lot of lost time and a couple opportunities… taking people up on some things as well.

Trying to figure out how to store an unknown sized crop of potatoes and sweet potatoes. Have 13 containers of potatoes that are taking over the patio. Will be planting 10 containers of sweet potatoes in next 2 weeks.
Will spend time at cabin in the woods.
