my company requires me to take a 2-weeker every year for control purposes! Last year went to France visit my family for Xmas. This year we decided to rent a House in the Gulf of Mexico for a real cool beach relaxing and fun family vaca. We re driving back to Jax
Saturday then to NC Sunday. Wednesday kids start school, it'll be first time in Big Girl school for Z, she is super excited!

I think the 2-weeker is a great idea Brice!!!...hmmm..."control purposes"...sounds good to me!!! Enjoy all that extra Rest & Relaxation amigo...

Well...evening switchup to the Seiko 6309-7040 to throw the baseball with my son for a while...followed by a "Ricard" in honor of Brice coasting toward the end of his wonderful vacation...

Cheers!!! (Thanks for the Ricard reference Brice...this is a great "hot weather" drink and made for kicking back and relaxing...I'll admit I like mine a little stronger than the recommended 5:1 mixing ratio as 4:1 with extra ice seems like a better starting point to me).

wow great shot and even better drink

so I converted one more to Ricard!:) that's what we drinked in France and during the summer a bunch of friends/neighbors got together every night almost for games of Petanque(=Bocce ball) and whoever lost had to buy/bring Ricards for all, we drank those all night. I also like it as a 3-4 to 1 ratio but will go to 5 if I have many and it's hot as it becomes more refreshing.
By the way I love your Seiko!!!

And yeah for control purposes. During that mandatory two weeker I'm another even supposed to call in and ask my guys to do anything, check email or asnwer them... Goal is to reveal any potential hidden exceptions that would age and come up at a senior level within two weeks as I could not do entries or instruct others to move positions or cash in and out of accounts trying to hide them...!!!
