I'd like to get out walking more, get into a home renovation project and later in the summer or fall I'd like to spend a couple days in Niagara Falls.

I need to do all the small things:

I have got to dust, clean and oil every fan I have in the house. I live by the beach and because I'd rather have fresh air I never shut my windows so I don't have an air conditioner. I have about 8 fans all around the house.

I have got to find all my summer clothing and wash, refresh and make sure they fit. I have lost some weight since last year and I'll need to see if the loose clothing looks nicely "casual" or if they look too baggy.

I want to get plenty of clean or new washcloths together to use as cooling off wet cloths for the worst of the summer's heat. When it gets Hellishly hot, one needs to apply cool water to one's overheated body.

I want to find my tape of a summer rain storm that I use to imagine that I am in a cool grotto, filled with cool plants and fresh breezes. When I had all sorts of medical tests last summer, I kept hearing that tape in my mind and it cooled me off as I broiled in hospital rooms.

Do I really need to do summer cleaning this year? Ugh.

for the snorkle gear, do you get the mask with corrective lenses or wear contacts/glasses under the mask?

I would like to quit smoking... not even because of my health, but because of the price a pack of sigarets goes for here in the Nethelands.

$6.36 for a 19 pack of Marlboro.

Dude, stop for the health reasons alone.. Stitistically, smoking is the biggest indicator of your quality of health as you get older.. Monitarily, think of what you could do with the money you save!!!

so far things from my list are going pretty good.
As to teh question abotu RX mask.. yes I am getting a RX to fit into my new mask.
If i buy one that comes with lenses its 89 dollars, but the new dive store i went to has a company they do business with and they can put them in any mask.. its just sticker shock at the price...

I will participate in many fun activities over the next few months - I am going to Belize to enjoy fishing and scuba diving. (some of the best in the world)

I am also planning a road trip up to new England - most of my time will be spent in Maine eating lobster and visiting with family.

Anyone have suggestion on what the best city and or attractions are in Maine?
This will only be my second time going to Maine - I have family in New Hampshire,
