That's "Vacation" with a Capital "V"







That's "Vacation" with a Capital "V"

That's "Vacation" with a Capital "V" 04/09/2004 04:13 PM

So, my site is on the new LISHost server, just in time to sit idle for a while. I'm heading off to a much anticipated vacation, sans laptop, so things will be even quieter around here than they have been lately (at least until the 19th, maybe later). Please also note that I won't be reading any news during that time, and I'm already so far behind in my email it's no longer a joke, so responses will be delayed even longer than usual. Sorry, but it's vacation, don't you know.

One last pointer that I've been quite remiss in posting until now. Library Journal's 2004 Movers & Shakers list is out, and I'm beyond pleased to see Steven M. Cohen and Lori Bell on it! Congratulations to both of them, as well as to all of the folks included on this year's list! I'm looking forward to reading through all of the write-ups and learning lots of great new things!

Take a vacation from your car


Take a vacation from your car 08/02/2004 03:20 PM
Having just returned to Paradise for a little visit, I am reminded just how cool this little place is (not that I needed much reminding *whimper*), and am looking for touristy things to do here without a car. While I was on my way up on the Pacific Surfliner train, a fellow rider told me about Santa Barbara Car Free. Awesome! Also props to CalTrans' alliance with Amtrak in California. The trains and service and overall quality of the passenger rail system is quite a bit different from what I've experienced thus far of the stuff handled by Amtrak alone.

Vacation, As It Was 12/29/2003 11:44 PM
Except for most of my twenties, I've vacationed annually in York Beach, Maine since birth, in a rented cottage within sight of Nubble Light, on Cape Neddick. All of my first cousins can say the same. We don't call it York, we call it Maine, as in "Are we in Maine yet?" Whoever first slapped "Vacationland" on that state's license plates certainly saw us coming, for "Maine" and "vacation" are plainly synonymous in my clan. No other...

We're Still Overworked -- Even On
Vacation
03/22/2005 07:03 PM
There have been a lot of these studies lately, but the most recent says that, indeed, we' re all still overworked -- thanks in good part to the ability of technology to keep us connected all the time. While most such studies focus on people doing additional work after hours or on weekends, this one finds that many people do work while on vacation or are not taking advantage of much of their vacation time. Yet, we still have employers insisting that emplo yees playing solitaire is a big problem. Employers need to realize that if they're setting the message that work can follow you home and on vacation, that personal time and activities should be allowed at work as well.

I'll be away from the office until February 15th in order to take a long-promised Disney vacation with my family. I'll be checking the support newsgroups while I'm gone, but my replies will likely be slower than usual until I return. So, if you don't get an immediate reply, please don't take it personally :)

Besides, the kids are out of Summer School, and I think I need to take some time away from the 'net and just be with them.

This isn't the first time this issue has cropped up, but now that lots of people are heading out of town on vacations, the inevitable question of how do you deal with the email piling up, is showing up again. There are those who "take their email with them," whether by laptop, mobile device or internet cafe. However, it appears that many people decide that it's better to just let it all pile up. They know that there will be a big mess when they get back to the office, and it may take a day or two to catch up, but their vacation is a real vacation.

Why not vacation in France? 06/18/2004 11:12 AM
If you haven't yet booked your summer vacation, why not consider a trip to France? The New York Times has collected a bunch of articles to create a France Guide. From barges in Burgundy to the Romanesque architecture of Poitou-Charentes, there are lots of ideas for what to see and explore. If Lille, one of 2004's European Cities of Culture, is on your agenda, check out the Times' What's Doing In: Lille and Maciej's recent first-hand report, Lille. Bon voyage!

Vacation of sort

I just got back home from SFO after watching my wife and son enter the passenger gate.  They are going to Korea to visit family and friends for a month.  This means I'll be on a vacation from family life for the next month.  Heeehaaaw!  So far I got a private poker tourney scheduled for Saturday.  I should do well enough to beat most of the players, but I doubt I'll be taking the big pot home because trying to win the tourney takes too much fun out of the game.

The worst thing about vacation...


The worst thing about vacation... 03/22/2005 05:09 PM

Is of course, coming back. We just got back from a short trip down to Stone Mountain, Georgia for a family re-union centered about my grandmother's 90th birthday celebrations. It was great spending time with the small family. When we gather together for a re-union, it almost feels like a big family. The kids loved the Stone Mountain train, the cable-car up to the top, and jumping from rock to rock all the way down. I wasn't expecting much from "redneck Rushmore" but the Marriot resort there is very nice as is the rest of the park. I might actually go back there someday.

Anyhow, upon my return I find that my blog has been down all day (due to a misconfiguration on my part) and, as usual, one of my office computers is freaking out. When I leave town, I power down the computers in my office (a Sun box, a low-end Linux box, and a Windows machine. No matter what, everytime I return, one computer won't start up correctly. This time it is the Windows box. The symptom: on start-up it boots Redhat Linux and I didn't even know I had Redhat on that box. Oh well.

In other news... I was supposed to finish Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds chapters 14 and 15 this weekend (you can probably guess how that went). Back to work...
