Now, if you were witness to my work travel schedule last summer, you will understand how excited I am to report that this summer will be MUCH lighter. Ok, it is still a lot for people who never travel for work but considering last summer I was home about, oh, 4-8 days max a month, it's a major improvement. I will be gone about 7-9 days a month from now until the end of the year, managing my clients presence at the Dew Action Sports Tour. It will be long, hard working days but the locations are great and I have friends in most of the cities. I also know a lot of people on the tour and haven't seen them in a few years so it will be great to have a monthly reunion. My tour of duty will take me to Chicago, Boston, Portland OR, Salt Lake City and Orlando. Not bad spots. I'll be making a quick stop in Seattle next weekend too for a Zumiez Couch Tour event...I've never been to Seattle so I'm excited to check it out, although I've been told to skip the Space Needle, it's the Pee-Wee squad of high towers. I will for sure be taking a ride on a ferry though.
Besides work, I feel like summer consists of little weekend trips to see friends or hit the beach, Saturday farmers markets, BBQ's, pool parties, boating, the plethora of races I want to do, concerts on the lawn, bookclub, dinner parties and more. Not to mention wanting to take a dance class and finish my photography website. Does it ever end?
Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I weren't constantly busy. Like, what do people do when they don't have plans? Ok...I have free nights and weekends (it's like a cellphone commercial) every so often, and believe me, I cherish them. But sometimes I think, you never know what's around the corner, and you certainly aren't going to find out by doing nothing.
Viva La Summer!
