So, what do you have planned for the economic stimulus check you'll get in May?
We should put it toward bills....
instead we're going to take a vacation in July...
I figure by July it should be nice and hot down here, so we'll go north.
Also, by July we'll be pretty fried from writing our dissertations, so we'll need a break.
The plan is to go go up the lake a ways... (the big lake) Staying in the US on the way to and from Canada. We're going to Rossport Canada. We visited briefly on our trip a couple of years ago -- but we've always wanted to visit again. It is an old-fashioned hotel -- with few amenities, but nice chairs on the deck overlooking the lake, and a great restaurant.
On the way up, we might stay someplace that was a hunting lodge -- that has an amazing dining room and that serves afternoon tea -- On the way back we'll probably do the Best Western, because we'll be wanting some internet and a king sized bed :).
If we plan it right, we can get the weekday rates all around -- and have a nice, refreshing vacation....

We are going to use it toward home improvement.
What we ought to do is pool it in a trust for the next generations because they're going to need it to pay off the debt incurred to give it to us.
Since that's impractical, I'm going to buy a refrigerator. Which I was going to buy anyway.
I'm no economist, but I keep asking this question: so the economy gets a nice influx of cash in May/June as this money arrives.
What about July? What then?
No one has answered it to my satisfaction yet.
