Wednesday August 13th
I was already stirring and had been up to get some Tylenol and potty when the HOA people started weed eating and leaf blowing at 7:30 this morning. Give me a break! So Mark and I got up and fixed coffee and ate some breakfast. Soon Jessica and Terry appeared to take a walk on the beach. I was going to drink my coffee and check my email on the balcony, but when I cracked the door to the balcony open to test the temperature and immediately shut the door. No, thank you! I'll drink my coffee in the house!
It was a hang-around-the-house day with no plans. We played in the pool, relaxed on the porch, played games, ate sandwiches for lunch and hotdogs and hamburgers for supper with mac-and-cheese, pasta and potato salad. We “went to church” via the Internet, played more games and went to bed earlier than midnight.
Thank You Lord for another great day with family.

Ode to a Seagull
by Annabell Sheila
Seagull, how I envy you!
You are wise and strong and free,
With silent wings you soar on high,
Catching only the fairest breeze!

Up at 8 and Jessica and family were headed out for the day. The guys were going ocean fishing all day. Jessica and Araya shopping for a girls’ day out. Mark and I are just going to hang around here. We decided to go to the North point of the Cape for some sight seeing and pictures. And pretty quickly decided we better leave early before the heat and humidity showed it’s hottest face! So we left around 9. The point had 1 other person on the beach. There were very few shells and even fewer birds, which surprised me! No sand pipers at all! I love watching them run after the receding waves to find goodies before they burrow into the sand. It was very windy, but was welcome and kept the heat at bay….or at least the feel of it! We walked down the beach a bit and took some pictures but didn’t stay very long. We got back to the house at 10:20. I ate the rest of my creme brûlée filled donut from the hotel, Mark ate a hotdog and hamburger. Then we played some games. I finally had a couple of hotdogs. We played for a couple of hours and then got dressed for the pool. I guess we stayed out for about an hour before coming in. I could tell Mark’s head was starting to get red and I was already red from being in the pool with Jessica yesterday. After coming in, I showered and we listened to our daily devotion before I started working on some scrapbook pages of our trip. We probably won’t see Jessica and family until late. I want to go back to the north point of the cape later and hopefully get a beautiful sunset picture! We shall see!
We went out to eat supper and then came back to wait for Jessica and family to get back. As soon as they returned, we piled in their car and barely made the sunset. By the time we left the park, the gate was closed so no one else could come in. After we got back to the house we played a few games before going to bed. I posted my art journaling challenge at OScraps and then went to bed and fell asleep quickly. Jessica was up until later and said she heard me snoring pretty quickly.
