Taking a Break from the Shop

boating accessories I had always vowed that working wouldn’t take over my life, but since I started working at the local marine parts store, it seems like every summer, we are so busy, that I never have time for my family.

But since the busy season is finally over and there is some breathing room just before Christmas, I have taken my family out for vacation.  Instead of staying around home, we decided to go somewhere a little warmer, to enjoy the water and sun.

My wife took this picture of me and my daughter out on the water.  It was a warm and windless day and we had a great time.  There is just something magical about not being at work for a change, and I wish that every day could be like today.

Sadly, that isn’t a reality that I can enjoy at the moment.  In fact, even though we have been trying to find ways that we can both retire early, I really don’t know how that is going to happen.  But if by some miracle we can swing it, I would hope that we could spend more days at the beach.  I know that my daughter wouldn’t complain one bit.
