How do you relax?
After no vacation for the last 8 months, the wife and I finally took some time to completely remove ourselves from our environment, travel to Iowa (the source of all fun), and decompress. Usually when we take vacations like this we end up bringing a laptop or two. Based on activities, this time those suckers stayed home.
Heck, I didn't check email, voicemail or really watch television. Only once did I find myself texting a co-worker to find out what was going on with stock, after hearing a news report on the radio.

What I failed to realize was that I was wound tight. If you have never owned a clock that you wind then the imagery will not bring to mind what happens when you over-wind a clock. The internals explode in a cacophony loud enough to make you take a step back and quickly withdraw your hands.
What did I do?
I went fishing, camping, shopping; simply relaxed.
Take the time to take care of yourself or you will not be able to take care of those around you.
- Catch and release
- Private ponds and lakes only
- Yes, the camouflage helped me to sneak up on the bass (the crappie and blue-gill were less intelligent)
