I think we need a little fluff :)

1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?

2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?

3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?

Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

That's how I read it too....but, I do think that it's valid to ask about the tip.

I don't see how this response addresses my comments in this post, can you rephrase?

Yes, they are all in the same general area, that doesn't mean that they are the same place.

Based on history, I'm pretty sure you didn't, but thanks.

Likewise, if I go to Williamsburg, VA to visit Colonial Williamsburg and the nearby battlefields one year, and the next I go to Gettysburg to the battle sites, and then the next year to Boston to visit Bunker Hill, I've taken the same general type of vacation, even though they are not the exact same place.



But, if I go to VA Beach and laze around the boardwalk for four days, then next year I go to Gettysburg, and then next year to Boston and watch 3 baseball games in Fenway, I've taken 3 separate distinct styles of vacations, even though I they are the same locations above where they were the same general type.

You know, I've been to both Hawaii and St. John. They aren't even remotely in the same general area. One is in the South Pacific and the other in the Caribbean. IMO, even though we were able to do different things in each place, truthfully, they were very similar vacations. We relaxed on sandy beaches, hung out by the pool, drank tropical drinks, did some snorkeling, etc. Different places for sure, but the same type of vacation? Yes, generally speaking.

I wouldn't consider DC to be a part of the rest of the group, but the rest are yes, in the same general area, check a map if you doubt me.

Again, Is there a reason you are not answering my questions?



Again, I never said they are the same places.

We have gone to the same locations, had totally different experiences based on the people we have met, time of year and so forth, but those trips were all the same type of vacation.
