Family Trip? Or Family a Trip?

It's late on Monday and we're all still kicking! It's my regular Florida vacation with Ratac but we added a few folks.

R and I were planning and he suggested that we bring my mother with us since she would have been recovered from her knee surgery for several months. She was all for it.

Later my cousin CaliBornAndRaised messaged me to find out when we were coming down - since she only lives 15 miles from where we stay. Once she knew the dates, she coordinated with her sister - theVoiceOfReason - and they ended up renting the condominium next door to ours. So she has been able to bring my Mom's sister - GiftedGabber - with them. Along the way, my cousin- ManAboutTown - called to see if he could come along. So we are all here - all 7 of us taking FL by storm! 

It's great because GiftedGabber is 85 now and will be 86 in November, Lord willing and my mom is 82 now. They and my uncle, LadiesMan - are the only kids left in a family of 11 kids. My uncle couldn't come and we were all disappointed but we had to get over it...

We ate at some great restaurants... Petrillo's Italian, Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen and a few others.

We visited the Sebastian Inlet, the Sea Turtle Preservation Society and of course I got some Ingress in during the week.

It was a lot to manage with 7 people, but we did it.



Me, BeautyISee, GiftedGabber, CaliBornAndRaised, theWiseOne, theVoiceOfReason and ManAboutTown...love my Family!

It was 1965....

So this is the year of the 50th birthday! I am in Chapel Hill, NC celebrating with the Native New Yorker. I've already had mine and next will be GoodHeart's turn. We are making 50 look great. It's great to get to though!!!!

My friends ... Spesh and TrueSister  ... are with me. We are heading home after a great time! Sad to go...
