We are heading out tomorrow on Amtrak to Portland, OR for 4 days. It will be a nice time to get away, and a much needed vacation for sure. Since we live in Seattle, it is only 3 1/2 hrs. to Portland and back, but with the high Fuel costs, we figured that this would be the cheapest way to go.
My husband and I both are only taking 2 days off from work, and we will be getting paid Vacation for this time as well. My birthday is on Monday so we figured what better time to get away. I will have my laptop with me, and we do have FREE wifi in the Hotel room, so you may catch me online sometime.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, and see you around myLot more when I get back.

Happy Birthday Tina!
My husband, daughter and I just got back from a 3 day vacation. We took our trailer to the lake and camped for a long weekend. It was great weather. My daughter brought a friend, so they went and played and swam while my husband and I were able to relax.
Hope your vacation is fantastic.

That sounds nice, it is always so good to get away from everything. I hope that you have a really good time and a very Happy Birthday to you when it comes.
I hope you are joking about taking your laptop with you! Leave it behind and have some fun, I am sure you can live without it for a few days! Have a great time.
