Happy Birthday America!
















Howdy y'all. Sorry for the post drought. My brain has not been functioning properly. Without further ado here is my 4th of July post.


The place:
St. George Island (the closest place to Heaven, just ask this girl). My friend, Katie, grew up on St. George. We stayed at her parents "beach house"(aka 4 story mansion complete with a boardwalk to the beach, hot tub and swimming pool).

The people:
the hostess with the mostess
yours truly
the cousin
the married couple
the almost married couple
the guy with a studder
the guy that kept his crackberry on his side (even poolside)
the shy girl
the 2 random guys, one of which left his wife and kids at home
the life of the party
the roommate
the roommate's boyfriend
the single guy

Activities:
bocce ball, cornhole, belly flops, cook outs, surfing, skim boarding, singing, dancing, offroad adventures, sand fights, fishing, crabbing, rock climbing, laughing, floating, etc.

I should have known how the weekend would go when my road partner and I followed the instruction of the handy dandy Garmin and ended up on a dirt road going mudding on the way down. All in all, the weekend was a complete success full of hapiness and patriotic songs. Sometimes it's amazing what a little sunshine and sand can do for the soul. I am also happy to report NO OIL (yet).
