Sunday

They rolled out free rum punch at the pool this afternoon, right after Pam and Debbie left for home.

I’ve noticed that the length of time it takes me to enter “true vacation mode” when we travel is considerably shorter than it was just a few years ago. This is the point on a vacation at which I finally feel like I can disconnect from email for a bit. The journey to true vacation mode is easier, too. I think this is due to a combination of my changing attitude and the fact that I have great people around me at work. They can handle everything, and I’m realizing that they don’t always need me, and that’s a good thing.

Renee and I walked along the beach a bit this morning. There’s an odd structure that sits on the north side of the inlet to Palm Beach harbor (not sure of the harbor’s official name). It provided a makeshift fishing pier for a lot of folks.
