CSB Highlights

Despite the rainy weather in Cape San Blas, we had an amazing time with our Florida friends, The Wheeler's.  

Gloria & I got to venture off to see if we could find the elusive Bay Scallop. We pissed off the local kayak renter, came too close to a pointy-finned creature, and escape being stuck in the bay during a pretty bad storm. Did we find the scallops? Yes, but only a dozen.  

Our kids actually enjoyed being in the sand. By the end of the trip, McKenna was sitting on the sand while she dug holes. It bought tears to my eyes. Jonah was walking around finding seashells and playing supervisor to the castle building.  

The boys, James & Chris, tried yet again to hook a tarpon but no luck. I'm beginning to think they sneak out and go to a bar. I have yet to get a great fish story.  

We sprinkled in some great conversation, snacking, swimming in the pool while it rained, cartoons, movies, adult beverages, rainbows, snake sightings, close calls with sea creatures, playing in the ocean while it pours, sunsets, fireworks. . . .

Good times, good times.
