Try #2 of Welcome Home

Hey Gang.....I sure missed ya'll!

  I tried this entry last night but AOL was in its prime attitude and wouldn't let it post....oh well let's hope it will tonight.

  The view........

 Friday afternoon TnT headed over to the beach house and I came over around 5pm.  After I unpacked we headed over to our favorite pizza/sub joint for dinner.  Yes, Lanny, I even ordered a large one hoping you'd show up for dinner!

 These shells never move...not even in the strongest of winds (that means you too Alberto). 

 Tom & Miss T showing their asssspects and heading over to the surf....

 Miss Tand Annabell

  I found a beached whale!

After soaking up some sun and hitting the showers we set off to the Green Turtle.  There is a guy I know that plays music there, Jimmy Buffet style.  We had an OK meal but like I said to Bill, he was the real reason we were there.

  Looking for shells & such.

 Me chillin after dinner and beer.

Sunday my parents came up (hey it's their house) and so did my lil nephew with his mom and her cousin and her kids (yikes). 

  My Mom.  (She turns 60 this year shhhhhh)Mr Chase says "what do you want Auntie Sharon?"   I said "Let's go to the beach and play in the sand".

  Guess who LOVED the water!  Even though he and I got caught by a wave (yes I went under but I held him high) he still wanted more!  Look at Miss T being the Mother Hen even with his mommy holding him!

 More More!    Here he's taking Miss T's sand outta her bucket and throwing it down.

 Panama Tommy watching from the Sun Deck.  I only got him in the ocean on Sunday.  He claimed the water was cold........sissy mary.

  Whew.....tough day at the beach!

After they left (a mess) we grilled hot dogs and burgers, with baked beans and chili and kraut.  I tell you, it's a rough time when you're chillin by the ocean!

  Legs!  Monday started out great, then turned more overcast as the day went on...good ol Alberto coming forth.  We were planning to go home Monday night anyway.  I did a no-no and went out Monday without sunscreen....my shoulders are in pain!  I'm usually pretty anal about sunscreen!

Someone else's kite.  I wanted one too.    I found a starfish.  Tara found the "bone".  She was so afraid of the sand crabs...eeeeking everytime one came out.   The shells are so pretty.  I even found "twin" shells and I thought of my J-land twin sisters, Barbara & Lisa Jo.  See you were with me anyway! 

I was actually glad to get home to my own bed and pillow.  We have a King bed and I'm used to my room....the beach house has a Queen...who knew a Queen bed could be so small!   It began to rain just as we were packing up the truck to come home.  So I guess we timed our departure just right. 

All in all it was good to get away...........

I MISSED YA'LL!!!  Glad to be "home" in J-Land!
