Florida - 2013

Mike, Gina and then kids took me to my birthday at my choice of sea food places.  I picked a dump that really looked speciously under code.  I said let's try it.  We did and it was great.  The best ever.  Mike and I ordered a steamed pot, Dylan ordered a fish dinner, Aida french fries.  Gina didn't order anything.  She is not a sea food person and the place didn't look to clean.  Mike and I would recommend the place anytime Denny Destin's.  It was out door dining and it started to rain.  The guys came by and lowered large windows.  Then it quit raining.  It was a lot of fun.  Hope you enjoy the décor of the restaurant.


The windows are open and breeze is blowing in.  It felt so good.  I liked the napkin holder.  It is a clay pot painted sea foam green.  It was really nice because they brought the kids food quickly.
 This was my birthday lunch.  About 2 1/2 dozen shrimp, new potatoes and corn.  Aida has decided she wanted my corn on the cob so it was hot and I am trying to get it out for her.  Mike had to finish my shrimp.  I could not eat all of mine.

This is a look down the outside of the building.


This is the on the water side.
 
Then as we left, Gina got her camera out and so I had to take a picture also.
They didn't spend a lot of money on out door decor.  I guess when you have the bay as a back drop you don't need to spend a lot of money on such trivial stuff.
 
 
Thanks Mike and Gin for a great lunch, a numbered print to hang on my wall and a green hose that shrinks.
I have not blog very much and I have not taken all the pictures that I took last years  Some are at the same places with the kids doing the same thing.  I have tried to get a sun set each day, but I will try again tonight.
The sun set is to the right and the glow is coming through clouds.  There was no setting of the sun.  Darks clouds almost every night.
 
Sand, white sand.  Every where you look you see God's beauty.  Couldn't resist this photo.
 
 
Gina wanted the their picture with their Razorback clothes on.  Me I had on something comfortable.
 
The weather has not been the best in the world but on vacation you can just enjoy being away from your job.  Mike's family went down to the pools. they have not been gone very long when in pops Mike and they forgotten Aida's goldfish.  (you know the kind in a bag and they are real cheesy).
We will be traveling back tomorrow. Florida is a nice place to visit but I would not want to live here.

We are here. Here in Florida.  We got here around 2:00, went and bought groceries and then we got in the condo at 4:00.  I took 26 pictures before dark last night.

I went to sleep before I could post.  Today is Tuesday morning and we got to the beach just in time to leave because of the rain.  I will try to post some pictures.  I am watching Scooby Doo with Aida.


I am standing on our patio look out at the ocean.  Clouds were dark and then rain came.

 I forgot to take my cover up off.  Now it is to late.  Aida held her dad's pinky all the time in the water. Gina and I watched Dylan
Not a good picture of the sunset. To many clouds.

Headed to the big one.  Dylan loves the ocean.  He would have gone out to far and never realized it.

We are looking for shells.  We walked almost to the pier last night. Wonderful to be at the beach, even though we have to work around the rain.
