Catching My Breath

So, I had promised my self I'd post as soon as I returned from FLA with the little one but I let my self be lazy instead. Now that it's August, thoughts are turning toward school already.

The southern trips were good to the Dardy family. Little girl and I went to FLA to see grandparents and friends. We spent time with my parents near the coast and visited the pool and the beach while we were there. Pools are a lot more fun now that the girl is (relatively) self-sufficient there. Give her a floaty vest and she's good to go. Beaches? A little less fun, I must admit. Never was a big beach fan even during the 35 or so years I lived in FLA. I enjoy being near the water and listening to and smelling the water. She had fun there, so it was a good day. We spent time with my mother-in-law as well where my little one got to spend time not only with her grandma there but with some cousins as well. She had a blast and I spent much of the time there catching up with my Gainesville folks. A great couple of days there. Next up was a south FLA trip and a delightful night at the house of our old Boca pal. Back to my folks for the last few nights and an opportunity to catch another baseball game. This time is was Space Coast Stadium. So, for those keeping count, I have now been to four minor league parks this summer and two major league parks. The season's not over yet, so I may be able to add another one to the list.

Photos soon.
