2017: Woke and went for a walk through Forsyth Park then got a drink at TheSentient Bean coffee shop (just in time to miss the rain). Tobey and Hasselgrabbed cars and came to give us a ride since it was still comingdown.After a big breakfast they packed up and headed on back to KY. Jim wasfeeling poorly and spent the day in bed. Ash, Norma and Jim stayed at homewhile the rest of us loaded up and went back to Tybee Island. They allfished while I sketched some, then I took Bri and Bailee down along thewater to search for sea shells. Back up on the pier I tried for a bit (gotone good nibble but missed) and we finally headed back to the house.Showers and resting and such before supper and uno before bed.
2018: Dropped Ashley off at work and then to Home depot for a lighter weightsplitting maul and Walmart for a bit before heading to my Dr appointment.Dr Karassa was really nice and I felt comfortable talking with her. Did ablood panel for different things and got most of the results back.Everything's looking good, just tired and stressed from the last year orso. In to work and had to run and teach the drawing class as Jeramiah wasbusy on the phone. Almost got to cancel the watercolor class as the onestudent showed up late. Had fun painting but then ready to head home.
2019: Eggs benedict for breakfast. Then off to pick up our rental Jeep for theday. Drove out to Salt Pond Bay (what crazy roads they have around here!)and hiked up to Rams Head, the end of the island. Ashley spotted a seaturtle coming up for air as we stood on an overlook on the trail. Thebarrel cacti had growths on top of them and their flowers look like littlefuscia peppers! The bay was breathtaking. Then we headed over to Hanson bayand rented a kayak to paddle out to Lime Out, a restaurant on a house-boat.we sat in the water and ate some delicious tacos for lunch along with ourneighbors from the BnB, with fish swimming about us. Back to shore for abit of snorkeling when we saw a big sting ray swimming below us! Then westopped at Maho Bay and snorkeled some - we spotted another ray and a fewsea turtles. We watched them grazing (and coming up for air) for a bitbefore we headed back into town to drop off the Jeep. It's weird driving onthe left side of the road, and the hills are super steep, and drivinghabits are definitely different than anywhere else I've been. Back to theBnB and had supper then read before bed.
2020: After Lily's first nap we headed to Hidden Valley for a bit of astroll/hike. Then drove up to Animas City overlook to check it out - Ashleyhadn't been and my only time was last summer with Don on the motorcycleswhen it was snowed in. Then home for the evening. Lily was too stimulatedfrom the day and had a hard time falling asleep.
2021: In to town early to get new tires on the Jeep. It definitely feels betterto have a balanced set, again. Jeramiah and I went to Serious Texas forlunch and to catch up. It was raining all afternoon so I didn't get to workon the shelves, which was the plan. Ashley and Lily came in to visit (toget out of the house for a bit) and we went to Zia's for supper. I headedhome about 30 minutes after they left so we went through the bedtimeroutine and then watched a show before heading to bed ourselves.
2022: Nice to be at the Daniels house - esp as Lily warms up to others (she tookright to Brittney and Bailee). Ashley's feeling low on energy so it's goodto have some extra help with Lily. Basically just hung around the housemost of the day. We did drive up to Cosby campground so that Lily couldplay in the creek. We played and she explored, then we built up some rockcairnes. Home and Norma made chicken noodle soup, veggie soup, and beeftips. So lots of yummies for supper.
2023: Helped Ashley chop veggies for tonight's common meal before heading to workfor the day. Home a bit early but everything was prepped so I played withLily at the Ponderosa. Then supper and a bit of a late bed time.
