May Family Visit Travelog #19
At my inlaws' house · Sat, 30 May 2026. 12pm.
Our bags are all packed. We'll be leaving my inlaws' house in an hour or so. We've been here for 11 days. Well, minus the two days we took a trip-within-a-trip, just the two of us, to a park with, like, a bazillion waterfalls and a town that's on fire.
Before we leave today we're planning our next trip(s). We've agreed our next visit to Hawk's parents will be TBD for now. We'll figure out timing after MIL's next followup with her cancer doctor about two weeks from now. We're all hoping she'll be able to resume treatment after that, and we'll plan around her treatment schedule. But that's not the only trip we discussed this morning.
We're also planning a trip to Hawaii! This is something we've been discussing for about a month now. I've been waiting for some hotel points to fall into place so we can book a nice place on Maui on points. We'd been planning to book reservations for December, but when we looked at availability today and cross referenced it with weather averages we landed on dates in September. So, it'll be a late summer visit to Maui for us!
We've got trips planned in August and September now. Nothing yet in June or July, though. We'll have to get busy figuring out what to do for the next 10 weeks. Though right now I'll be happy to get home and spend the next few days taking it easy and lounging around the pool.
