Workcation

View from my hotel room.

One of the great perks of my job is getting to work the events surrounding our board meeting in January...in Naples, Florida.

Oh yes, its rough, let me tell you, but someone has to do it! My boss and I headed to Florida on a Tuesday afternoon. Matt came to join me on Friday afternoon and my duties for my "workcation" were completed on Saturday night. Sunday Matt and I along with our friends Kim and Justin headed to Ft. Myers until Wednesday. Eight days away from the bitter cold and snow of Indiana, it wasn't long enough!

The majority of our events and board meetings were held at the Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club which is a fabulous beach front property. They have a great pool area, beachfront tiki bar and multiple buildings that make up their family owned and operated property. Not to mention a golf course and fabulous spa (I had my first facial, and it was amazing! How have I gone so long without one of these?!). If you are looking for a family friendly vacation location in Southwest Florida, I would recommend checking this place out!

Beach Vaca...Again!

The weekend following the Larry Bird events, Matt and I headed to Florida for a much needed vacation! While they were deicing the airplane on the runway, I realized it was a much needed escape from the frigid weather marking winter. We are fortunate that his family has a condo in Ft. Myers that we can use, which really cuts down on the cost of a get away! However, we figured it had been since January of 2012 since we had last visited.
