Day Two Hundred Eighty 2013

If there is a heaven for me, I'm sure it has a beach attached to it.

Can you tell it’s Fall Break at the beach? This group ordered twelve chairs together. I think maybe it’s time for us to go home.

Woke up to a chilly blue sky Autumn day.

The dolphins had everyone’s attention this morning as they swam back and forth looking for breakfast

The water was perfectly clear, all green and blue and warm ~ no seaweed ~ Holly, Jerry, Shelby and Elijah rode the waves which were gentle compared to the past week or so

Elijah has been after us to play Monopoly ~ he and Shelby and Neil and I got a game going ~ two hours later we called it a draw because nobody was trading any property and we were going in circles ~ but Shelby ended up with the most money, so she was declared the winner. The Myers family is heading back home in the morning ~ they didn’t get to stay very long but enjoyed the time they did have while they were here ~ Vacation is winding down ………

Glad the weather cleared and you all got to bob in the Gulf. I bet that wind on the beach was chilly. Good that the water is still warm. We lunched in the park today and missed you guys! We'll do it again next week.

Dolphins! :) It was a beautiful day here, too. Love that blue sky! Don't think I ever saw a group of 12 chairs together, even the year we were there and a family reunion was going on. Hope it's not a rowdy crowd. Looks like a beautiful, relaxing day on the beach.
