Our week in Florida was a gorgeous week ocean-side. The plan was to relax. The setting couldn't have been more conducive to relaxing. It was a great week of 80 degree weather, walks on the beach, resting in the pool and reading in the gazebo.
Some quick observations:
Some quick observations:
- Saying, "no" to email was the right thing to do.
- An after-vacation purge is in order: I consumed more fried and junk foods than anyone should consume in a week.
- Eating fresh seafood four evenings out of the week was awesome! Stuffed flounder - Yes!
- Reading Erwin McManus' new book, Wide Awake, was the perfect read for vacation.
- I love strolling the beach holding my wife's hand. We had some special moments. She's my best friend.
- Liv's laugh, pool-side dancing, and love of shell fish was a hoot. The more she grows the more fun she is!
- My in-laws are interesting. And I love them. (I'm sure they think the same of me.)
- When you go on vacation with extended family, don't extend the vacation. A week was just enough.
- It's good to be home.
