I am going to be watching my Hulu game replays, starting with Senior Day and watching in succession every game through yesterday's 12th NC game. But, today I am going to continue the celebration by watching both SoCar game replays, in order of course.
And I will be looking forward to some quality music threads
Ignoring every "who will be our starting 5 next season" thread/post.
Checking the BY multiple times every day just because I have a case of OCD

I usually don’t check in much during the off-season because I like to come into the new season with fresh vigor.

I have a NYS park pass and I’ll be outdoors and doing a lot of hiking. :) Plus following UConn baseball/softball for the rest of their seasons and pulling for the Yankees, too.

Oh, and getting excited for UConn football in the fall, of course.
 
Restart watching NHL - Lightning, and NBA - Celtics, and catch up on a whole bunch of streaming shows that we couldn't get into while the M&WBB season was going on. Outlander, Jack Reacher, among others. Then headed to CT for a few months this summer - friends & family, hiking, etc.
 
I'm cutting down on my Tony C koolaid. :) It did work this year once again....... My wife talked me into a Viking river cruise down the Danube then 2 weeks in Ireland. Anyone take one of their cruises? We usually rent a car and I drive everywhere.

Time now for the very long honey do list, no excuse now!!

Never the less, I will be smiling while I toil, until the new season starts.

This was a long time coming but so worth the journey for this Canadian senior citizen.
 
I'll check in once or twice a week.

Vacation:
Maybe be going to CT for an extended visit. Our sailor son may be flying in for a month. Stays with his brothers. He may be moving to another assignment. Haven't seen him in three years.

July we will be on an Alaskan cruise for our 50th weding anniversary.

August is our usual trip to CT to see our sons and the grandson son.

We've only done cruises with Amawaterways, however it's a good way to see a lot of locations without making all the plans yourself, and trying to figure out if there's enough stuff to see and do in some of these towns.
 
I have already started gardening. I'm and expert with roses. But, other than that, working, hoping to see friends a lot, and if money allows, take a long weekend somewhere.

I haven't traveled in 4 years so I'm due. But, if I can't I live near plenty of state parks and other places to explore. I do hate the bugs though.

Aside from checking out all UCONN women's basketball news and watching any televised high school all-star games, I'll be making an occasional pilgrimage to Mets MLB and minor league games, enjoying adventures with my wife and dog and attending a bunch of NY Liberty games (especially August 5, if Paige is drafted by the Wings)!
I can't wait to see reports of healing, strengthening and improvement in skills of our returning champs, reports on our new players and speculation on who might be signing with us.
 
Attending my youngest son’s wedding. My goodness, he was learning to walk just yesterday!

I'll finally be playing tennis without gloves or a hoodie - no more 43 degree mornings - then later hiding from the sun by starting play at 800.

We'll be joining HuskyNan at her son's wedding in North Carolina.

I'll take 10 days or so in Portugal in June with Colleen and our grandchild, walking ~100 miles to Santiago de Campostela in Spain, then probably visiting Barcelona.

Colleen & I may take a 16-day cruise up the east coast of Britain & Scotland, then to Ireland and Iceland.

I'll be bemoaning that all that great travel will make tending to our usual vegetable garden impossible. At least the herbs need no help but automated watering.

Waiting to see what Geno produces for Chapter 41!

There is a lot to watch, as the WNBA, the Ameri Cup (Senior), FIBA Americas U16 to watch potential recruits, FIBA Worlds U19 if some of our freshmen are listed with the team.
