As I sit here at my campsite in the Northern part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, I can't tell you how good it feels to be on vacation. I have been here less than 24 hours and I have already sat around a campfire, played 18 holes of disc golf, and I still have two more days to go!
It's been really great so far and my nephew seems to be having a really good time. I'll be doing a full post on the campground where we are staying at a later time. For now, you will just have to settle for the opening photo.
It's another Tuesday again, and that means it is time for a #threetunetuesday sponsored by 
Since I am on vacation this week, I am going to stick with a definite theme. A couple might be on the nose, but I am going to avoid at least one that I know has been shared already before.
So here we go!
If you are a child of the 80's, then you most likely know and love the Go Go's. I have always been a fan of their sound and let's be honest, who doesn't like a good all girl group.
Plus, if we didn't have the Go Go's, we might not have the solo career of the great Belinda Carlisle. I mean, that's enough right there isn't it?
This is the song that fits the best for this weeks theme. You might think I would follow it up with something like "Holiday" by Madonna, but that is the one that I know one of my Hive friends has shared already. Instead, I am going to take things in a more modern direction.
Let me give you just a few more minutes to bask in the awesomeness that is the Go Go's...................
If you know me, you know that I am a huge fan of Counting Crows. While I still think their freshman album is by far their best, the Hard Candy Album would come in at a close second. It has so many good songs on it that I just love.
It actually feels like I am hearing them again for the first time every time I hear them. There is just something magical about the instrumentation and the lyrics that lets them stand above a lot of their other work.
"Holiday in Spain" is a perfect example of that and part of the reason it easily sits in the top ten of my favorite Counting Crows songs.
I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Finally, I am going to leave you with this classic song from the Beach Boys. My father and my sister are huge Beach Boys fans. I basically grew up listening to them, so it only felt right that I include this one.
I remember this song was a bit of an attempt for the Beach Boys to "re-invent" themselves. It got included on the Cocktail soundtrack (that movie with Tom Cruise), and it was also included for a little bit on Full House until they started playing that "Forever" song.
Good old Uncle Jesse knew what he was talking about given his love for the Beach Boys. While I am nowhere near a tropical destination, I am still in that kind of relaxed state that I am sure you can find in Kokomo.
I know this is a bit of a short post today, and I apologize for that, but my nephew is up and fed and ready to take on some new adventures!
