My wife and I decided to take a vacation next week. We were going to do the typical beach type atmosphere, we even were considering going back to Jamaica for a week.

I decided though that I wanted to do something both enjoyable and healthy. We are going to the White Mountains in New Hampshire and will spend the week hiking, sight seeing and camping. I am still very out of shape but I figure I can take it easy and just have some fun. It will definitely be good just being out of the office, lol.

That's good you have the mind set to do something healthy even though you are on vacation. Many find it hard to do.

This coming weekend is the Memorial Day weekend. My bf is going to take me to La Jolla for the weekend just to enjoy the atmosphere and food there. I have a heartbroken half marathon race there last month. My bf has promised to take me back there for a relax enjoyable time.

I wish every traineo pal has a nice wonderful and healthy long weekend also.

You had me at Jamaica...



...wait... what? You fool!

I'll have to find time this summer to get out to Jamaica to make up for your INSOLENCE now!

Have a great week though, hiking and camping and outdoorsy stuff isn't really my thing... I figure I work all hard so I can pay all this money for a mortgage to have a house, why would I want to sleep in the woods?

I love the beach!!!! I'm going to Gulf Shores in a week and 2 days!!

My hubby and I went for a three day mountain hike, and it was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had. I was so sore I could barely move for a week afterwards, but I lost 4 lbs. I think it was about a 20 mile loop; there was a huge feeling of accomplishment afterwards. And, being in the woods for three days really makes you appreciate today's modern conveniences, but at the same time you realize that being without those conveniences isn't so terrible either.

Best of luck on your hike!
