Sometime over the course of the next couple months, Sean and I have decided that we’d like to take a vacation. I personally don’t see myself being completely on-board with this until I’ve hit the 20-pounds-lost mark. I’m putting myself on set goals of 20, instead of 15. This is based on the fact that the 13 seemed to come off so easily. That was just walking around the block, it had nothing to do with portion control at that point either.

We decided that we’d like to head to either Ohio to visit his brother or possibly up to Maine to take in the scenery. We’ve heard such good things about Maine that after weighing the options it’s more than likely going to be first choice. Considering I basically have control over the destination (he just doesn’t know it yet), I would prefer to go there anyway. I did some looking around hotelreservations.com which as some may know offer everything from cheap hotels to the more expensive hotels. Naturally I’m looking somewhere in between that. Their idea of “cheap hotels” however aren’t like Motel 6 or anything, it’s just the cheapest possible room rates to meet your search criteria.

We’re not looking to do some big beach resort thing. We live by the beach so we’re really looking more ‘inland’ so that when we’re lucky enough to have clear skies, we can see every possible star that there is to see. My grandfather has spent quite a bit of time up there and has so many stories to tell you about Maine that there’s no possible way that I won’t make my way up there soon. I figure if both Sean and I have the money to do this (considering business is doing well for both of us) then this would more than likely be a solid location for us to look into on our trip. We’re not looking for some long week-long stay, we’re probably even going to be driving up so we can float through as many states as possible along the way to our destination. I guess I’m going to need to buy a few storage cards and a couple cases of batteries for my camera, huh?
