As you’re reading this, I’m driving east towards the North Carolina coast with my wife and the middle children of my siblings. I’m writing this less than eleven hours before it arrives in your inbox (if you’re subscribed). Currently, I still haven’t packed for our week-long vacation. It’s not that I’m a procrastinator, I just let other tasks get the better of me—writing this article being one of the many things I had to complete before leaving.
One more thing, Stan. I always berate myself for being a procrastinator. But like you, I always let other tasks get the better of me, usually helping others. Thanks for letting me off the hook!
Important insights which really resonate. Many thanks for sharing your story, and so beautifully too. I can see the waves, the fishing and the laughing. Appreciate your reminder to pack light, both physically and emotionally. Hoping you enjoy a wonderful vacation making good memories!
Family times!!! Our three children, our 5 grandchildren ,one son in law& Rick & I all rented a cabin in outside of Asheville. We visited the Biltmore, the Antler Hill Shopping Village. We also visited the farm park.
It was a wonderful weekend, I will never forget!!!
There were lots of pictures . Laughs until there were tears!!!
Aaron & Susanna were of course were up to their shenanigans (if you know them you know)!
Truly reminded me of why I love them all so much!!! When we go through the hard times when we seem like strangers instead of friends or family. I go back to those days!!! Thank you for sharing Stan!!!
Good for you. Make memories now and enjoy this time. So many times we haul baggage around that needs to be dropped and disposed of. I’m so glad you are doing that. Have fun and keep sharing! Love and Hugs!!
Just returned from our own trip to Ocean Isle - in a large house filled with my spouse’s siblings, their children - and in some cases their own children. The ocean is magical but it gets stiff competition from the familial bonds being reinforced by time spent together.

Haha it’s all perspective for sure. It gets done when it gets done haha.

Enjoy!
I’m stoked to just be by the water. It’s so dang restorative somehow. Sucks we couldn’t cross paths out there.
