No trips coming up on the horizon. I miss my single serving friends already. Anyone here have any fun trips coming up?

Thanks for asking the day after we arrived home from our vacation trip.
We had a wonderful time in Tulum. From the people we talked to, we chose an excellent resort (Dreams seem to have smaller size resorts and therefore meal reservations or wait times aren't a issue) and our timing was good in that there were virtually no teens and only a few children. Temps were 80s in the day, and there was no rain while we were there. The people there were very friendly, and I made it a point to try use as much Spanish as I could pick up.
did you tour the ruins?
indeed. that's where we saw our coatimundi
I'm about to leave for St Paul for a bachelor party. Sounds like we'll be in uptown but I have no idea where. That's sort of a trip.
We're in the early stages of planning a return to the Outer Banks in 2018 with a group of friends who took us out there in 2014. Normally I'm not the kind of person interested in going to the South (give me the PNW, CO, NM, or MT any day), but with this particular group of people it just about wouldn't matter to me where we went. I draw the line at Florida.
I'd love to get out to Seattle to visit my best friend this year, but another solo trip would probably strain things at home. Plus, we're trying to save up for an addition.
We're going to Munich, Zurich, and Frankfurt at the end of March. I suppose I should start lining up places to stay.
Y'all still here / feeling better? We're going out to Krewe DuVieux tonight with my folks (...).
Still here and on the road to recovery. I think the in-laws have me booked for a long dinner tonight, but I'll text if I find an opportunity to escape.
My wife is going to Atlanta next weekend for a conference, but I'm staying home with the kids.
We are planning a trip to go skiing at Mammoth Mountain in late March, though. That should be fun.
I think we're doing the Grand Canyon over Spring Break. We figured this was kind of our last chance before we escape the southwest.
Also, the national chemistry conference is in San Fransisco in April, so I've got some students lined up to go to that.
I miss the SW sometimes, and the Grand Canyon is one of the big reasons. We camped out there several times over our 5-6 years in 'burque.
I also long to get back to four corners and Mesa Verde.
I'll be going to Onida tomorrow morning.
Oh, that's right -- I'm going to Omaha on Wednesday :/
