Well its 2 weeks now till I start my terminal leave. Then I’ll have about till the beginning of September where I’ll basically just be doing my own thing. I’ve been thinking about this time off today. I think I’ve got a plan for what I want to do. People keep suggesting I take some trips and such. I really don’t know what I’m up for though. I know I need a plan. I don’t want to just sit around and do nothing. On the other hand I really don’t think i need to feel obligated to be traveling, just because I have the time. I’ve done my fair share of traveling on my own, and honestly I like to share traveling with someone else. It doesn’t mean as much to me if I’m just going to go on my own. With that in mind, anyone I’d want to travel with, isn’t really going to just be off work like I am for a month and a half. So i feel like I need to do things more towards my own personal betterment. I plan to golf some. I plan to take on some projects of my own, with either computers and electronics. I feel like I’m obligated to build something. I just have that itch. I want something to show for this time off.

Also, i think my most appealing idea so far, is to take a few solo biking day trips. Something like seeing how far up the Potomac Canal Path I can get.. or ride my bike as far as I can up into Pennsylvania on the bike path near my apartment in cockeysville. Something akin to when I road my uncles bike for an almost 40 mile trek up and down the coast of southern California from Oceanside to Del Mar and back. Maybe if i can figure out how to transport it in my car, i could even drive it over to Ocean City, MD and ride up the oceanside highway.

Anyways thats what I’m thinking of this morning…
