We went to Florida for Thanksgiving. Spent Thanksgiving with Ricks family. His mom is doing really good considering.
Saturday we were going to go to my sisters house but her and her husband were sick so we decide to go to the beach....
On the way to Crescent Beach we stopped in Palatka to walk down the long dock where 2 of my brothers ashes were put.
When we started to get out of the car we realized we forgot Marleys leash. We left her in the car and walked and took pictures.
Then we had to stop at a dollar general (only thing we came across) to get a leash and I bought the only one they had. It was $3....
So we go on about our trip, windows down, beach on the horizon when I heard a flapping noise and turned around just in time to see Ricks church shirt fly out the window.....I start yelling... He pulls over and runs back while 3-4 cars run over his shirt....(well now at least it won't need ironing) ..As he gets back into the car he says under his breath... "I am still wearing it to church tomorrow"....so on to the beach.
It's a beautiful day maybe 72 degrees sunny. Marley (and us) get our feet wet just about the time she sees a sea gull. Snap goes the $3 leash and off goes Marley. She didn't go far and we were able to tie her to the leash so she could still get in the water (leash law).
Rick and I both ended up getting our jeans wet all the way up to the crotch. Got some great pictures and video and enough sun so we headed out.
Found a great "hole in the wall" Seafood Restaurant for a delicious fresh flounder sandwich.
All in all it was a fun trip and we made some great memories and a list of how to be more prepared the next time we go to the beach....
