How’s your summer going? Mostly hot, I bet. Summertime is great.

No agenda, you don’t have to deal with crazy hectic schedules; nor rushing through traffic to get the kids to practice, rehearsal, event or a game. Hopefully it’s a time you can spend with family.

Maybe you are planning to create a great summer adventure – or vacay somewhere new.

Many people use “Summertime” as a time to make new memories or check something off your “bucket list”.

Perhaps, it’s a time for personal growth and development; whether educational, getting back into a hobby or learning a new skill you’ve always wanted to.

Taking a class is a great way to meet new friends as well. Don’t be afraid to ask what is the age to be considered eligible for senior discounts.

Don’t forget to check your local Parks & Recreational on their summer programs, camps, and kid activities as well as adults.

Maybe your the type that needs a getaway. If your not a frequent flyer,

and if you plan to travel with your firearm, here’s a quick reminder list:

Traveling with a firearm? DO make sure you carry your concealed weapons permit with you.

• DO verify you are legal to carry in that state.
• DO have TSA approved box and locks for storing empty / unloaded firearm.
• DO keep ammo separate from said firearm.
• DON’T leave a spare magazine in your purse or any loose ammo. It will be confiscated.

• Verify you can bring a “personal item” IN ADDITION TO the carry-on bag. Not all airlines allow this. Try to stuff a lady’s purse inside the carry-on bag.
• A light sweater, scarf or small throw – keeps the chill off
• Phone charger. It’s amazing how quick that battery can drain.
• A snack, fruit and or gum. It helps equalize the pressure.

Know where you are going. This seems simple but if you travel to a city where there are multiple airports, be clear on which airport gets you closest to your final destination.

Renting a vehicle? Again, know where you are going – which airport that it. And, double check once you’ve purchased airfare. In trying to get the best deal you may have gotten confused… Surprisingly, it’s a pretty common event reserve a car at one airport & then show up at the other one and they don’t have your reservation!

For me, it feels like summers are shorter. I imagine though there are still kids screaming “I’m bored” somewhere!

Are the kids really ready for “Back to school”?

It won’t be long before the nights become cooler, the days a little shorter and the leaves begin to fall.
