Hey guys! I'm still on vacation at the beach in Florida. I have a dial-up connection though, so I only check a couple of times a day when I'm not making sand castles or riding waves with the kids.
I'm having a great time. I'm very relaxed and starting to regain my sanity. The beach house we're staying in is not too close to a big city, so the stars on the beach at night are brilliant. After the kids went down last night I just sat in a beach chair and stared at the sky, listening to the waves and my book on my iPod. There was a nice breeze coming up from the Gulf, and my feet were buried in the soft white sand. It was pure heaven.
Seriously though, if anyone deserves a vacation it's you man!
Enjoy!

Have a great week, JP. You've earned it and deserve it!

Here's Julian showing off a still intact sand dollar that he found diving with Sophie, sporting her movie star sunglasses and her little gap in her bottom row of teeth!
Here's Ethan playing in the sand. I think we have some little beach bums in the making.

Just saw some dolphins swimming about 50 yards out... About 6 of them. Also saw quite an impressive jellyfish (swam a wide berth). Started drinking Corona's at 10! Life is good!
Hey! You may be on holiday....but you're still only allowed to drink Michelob Ultra!
