Back Home in Illinois

It’s Monday. I spent most of our last day in Florida out on our balcony overlooking the Gulf reading The Complete Calvin & Hobbes Box Set. It’s a four-volume collection of the full run of Bill Watterson’s comic strip Calvin & Hobbes that ran in daily newspapers from 1985 to 1996. It was perfect for a lazy afternoon of just hanging outside and enjoying the sun and beach. It’s probably my all-time favorite comic strip, right up there with Bloom County. It was a nice last day in what was a perfect week of sun, beach, relaxation, great food, and plenty of drinks. Hopefully we can do it again next year.

The return trip home was smooth with only a couple redirects due to construction. And as always, I’d like to say that it’s good to be home, but that would be a big-fat-smelly lie.
