There's a place I go pretty much every year up here in NY called The 1000 Islands. It's right on the border with Canada and NY by the St. Lawerence River. My aunt and uncle have a HUGE cottage up there near Cape Vincent. The last time I went up there were 30 people in that cottage at one point, and it really didn't seem that bad until it rained all day and we were all getting on each other's nerves. That was 2 years ago (usually go up the weekend after Fourth of July), and I didn't get to go last year because of unusual happenings. That place is my total getaway. It's really the only vacation I have for a week. I usually take a week off following that weekend so I can let that relaxation sink in before the Back To School season kicks in. Last year on my vacation I was going between visiting the hospital for my grandfather and my dad going out of work for his back. THat was not fun. It's amazing how much a week away from EVERYTHING can clear your mind. Every once in a while I'll go down to the lake front about 2 miles away from my house and sit and relax to try and clear my head. God I can't wait to go this year. One of these days I'll take myself on a rewarding vacation for a week. Relax during the day and drink the night away all week long. Thanks man, now I really don't want to go to work...LOL.
