Serenity

Any beach weekend is great as there is something that can't be put into words what the beach does to the soul. We just got back from a loooong weekend at Lindsey's family beachhouse. It's a great place that they built in 1981 I think?? It has remained essentially unchanged since then and still is TV/Internet free. If you aren't into sitting on the beach, you won't last long here.



We left Atlanta just after 5pm on Thursday and headed straight for Tallahassee to pick up Lindsey's mother. After the pick up we landed at the beach just after 1am. Took us about an hour to "open up" the house...turn on the water, electricity, etc.

Friday evening, Lindsey's sister Katie, her husband Matt, and son Eli joined us and her other sister Kristie came up Saturday morning. Friday and Saturday were spent lounging on the beach were you were only interrupted to make a sandwich or use the bathroom. It was fairly windy all weekend so the high 80 temps felt awesome....never scorching hot.

Friday night we went to a local guy and bought a few lbs of shrimp, boiled it, and then feasted on peel-N-eat and salad. Some late night beer drinking with Katie and Matt kept us up until about 2.

Saturday we had a few beers on the beach, played some Cornhole (fun beach game for those not in the know), and read books. Man, I am really into Corona lately!

We decided to do surf and turf for dinner Saturday night so it was more shrimp and we did burgers too. As we prepped the dinner, I decided to introduce some Birkett guacamole to the Snyders.....HUGE HIT! Hard to go wrong with a massive bowl of delicious guac when you have hungry people right?

Matt C and I did our best to create some awesome burgers....marinated in Dale's sauce, topped with thick extra sharp cheddar, fresh jalapenos, fresh cut bacon, and guac of course.....really, really good!

A great trip! Enjoy the pics.....pretty boring as I didn't get many with humans in them.
