All Entries: What I Learned From Vacations
If you're new around these parts, I just want to say how much I appreciate your dropping by! Oh, and you may want to subscribe to my feed. Thanks, and a tip o' the hat to ya!
Once again, I am honored by your participation in our monthly What I Learned From… group writing projects here at the Zone; and particularly by the excellence of your entries. (I mean, when you throw something like this wide open, you never know, you know?) As always, I’d like to express my thanks for your contributions to the General Body of Knowledge!
It’s another great turnout for this month’s group writing project: VACATIONS; a total of 13 entries in all. A bit lower than previous months, but what the hey, we’re just havin’ fun anyway.
And, although I did say you could be as concise or as eloquent as you like, this month saw one entry that deserves recognition as the most concise ever! (But you’ll have to read the entries to find it.)
Anyway, below you’ll find the entire list of entries (in semi-sortof order of receipt). Do yourself a favor and check them all out. Each one finishes the phrase:

Y’all give yourselves a big hand, my friends; and as always, a big tip o’ the hat to ya! What’s next month’s topic going to be, you ask? Well… that would be telling!
Don’t forget to tune in the first Monday of EVERY month for the next What I Learned From… group writing project. Come to think of it, while you’re at it, why not tune in pretty much every day? You might just be glad you did.

Middle Zone Musings is a comfortable place to stop, have a cup of coffee, swap a few stories and share practical ideas for the real world. I don't ask for much, just a bit of your brain every now and then. Have a seat, take a load off, and relax...
Hi Robert
Sorry, was way too busy (business plus invasion of family last week) to contribute this time.
(Now I still have to find time to read all the above ;-))

GL, thanks for your contribution. Keep limber - next month we do it again!

Anyhow, here it is http://jejinternet.blogspot.com/2007/08/what-i-learned-from-holiday-time.html
