It's hard to have fun when there are so many displaced and uncertain. The weather here is breezy and the waves are really showing out. As I type, I hear the sound of fork lifts removing the beach chairs from the sand below our condo...a reminder of the reality we face here as well. Gustav should make landfall in the am tomorrow and I'm sure our day will consist of TV watching and games...maybe a little napping too. We are having a good time in spite of the conditions but we can't escape the reality that some lives will be changed forever after tomorrow. We are praying for those affected while back home our wonderful church family is being hands and feet to evacuees. We are so blessed to have family eager, ready and willing to help out in times like these.
Our first day was a pool day...because of the strong wind, the sand became more like a beating rather than relaxation. We spent it at the kiddie pool and I must say, our girls had a blast. Our friends, The Hall's are here with us for a couple of days too and little MK loves the water. They played really hard and enjoyed the shallow water. Our condo is wonderful and very well appointed. We decided to take our beach pictures this afternoon since we were ucertain as to the weather for the rest of the week. I'll post a few of those tomorrow. SC is in bed and SJ....well, she's on vacation....meaning she's still up but about to be put to bed!
I'm signing off.....more tomorrow....
