Icon7 Family took 'action'

After looking at me have a rough week and quasi breakdown, they showed up with packed bags. Asked me to pack cigars and get in the car.

A few hours later, sitting at the beach doing...nothing!!!!

Good for you... times get stressful, it's nice to get to kick back with the best people on earth and take it all in... I'll be doing that after I get out of work and cut the grass... Cheers

Very nice gesture from your family Gerardo--you're a lucky guy!
The quesadillas/avocado/pico de gallo combo is a deliciously simple comfort snack (imho).
Getting back to basics, like a little quality time with your family, will have you feeling better in
no time.

Gerardo, I don't know you and I do not know what you do, but am so happy your family has kidnapped you for your sanity! Enjoy your weekend and your time with them. As YOU know they are what is important. Stay well sir!
