While I wish I could have brought the beach home with me, I sure am glad to be back! I had a great time- we had beautiful weather for my dad's memorial and spreading at sea, and again the day we revisited his spot. I can't complain about the weather at all- every day was perfect! I got just enough of a tan to look like I went to Florida, but no so much as to look like I should be on Jersey Shore. I even found some good deals when we went shopping- a pair of Lucky jeans for $32 instead of $98 (score!!), some cute platform flip flops, and a green cardigan all for me, plus 2 mugs for Tim and a coozie for each of us from Master Bait & Tackle. I also ate way too much good food!!!
I got a tiny bot of hand sewing done- only 4 more diamonds made from my hexies- but, while I was gone, a lovely lady by the name of Donna offered me some of her scraps- and they arrived today! My, some of them are bringing back flashbacks from my doll-quilt making days... and some I had used for button doll dresses.... oh, the memories! Make me want to make a button doll, and a mini quilt to go with her!!!
I'll leave you with some shots of Florida...

| Look how calm it was 6 miles out where we spread my dad's ashes... so peaceful. Perfect. |

| Sunsets always look great on vacation! |

| There were dolphins in this pass almost every day we went through it! |
Last but not least, my favorite, the grumpy pelican:

How beautiful it was for your service - what a blessing! And congratulations on the great buy on jeans. :) blessings, marlene
