Minkerman: Coasting into an uncertain future

[cw68]

Let me know if you are, I've got some great suggestions since wine tasting is actually one of the things my H and I have always done and we've spent plenty of days in Napa and Sonoma. We're not Calfornia winos, since we both grew up in the Midwest, but wine tasting's fun and something we were able to do with the kids. You know, hit three wineries in one day, sit outside, play ball, hang out. Less on the wine, more on the outside/trip part of it.

btw, if you're planning on seven days, I'd spend five in wine country and two in San Francisco.

The summer vacation thing is grating on me, too. Trying to figure out if I'll be able to go back to Chicago to visit family and if I do, what about my H? Will he just meet me at the airport on my way back and then take the kids for a week to his Mom's in northern Michigan? The thought of the separate vacations just deflates me so I ignore it.
