The water today probably should be outlawed - it was just about perfect. Jean tangled some with a jellyfish, but it's okay now. I guess the water could be better in the Caribbean or the Pacific Islands. But the water here, this week, would be mighty tough to beat.
The reservations have been made for next year, so vacation plans can be made.
We're starting to work on finishing up the food. Tonight's menu was a repeat of yesterday's (isn't that a shame!). We never did get crabs again. The fishmonger told Sue that the boatman said it wasn't worth his time and cost of gasoline to go out for crabs. 8^( Tomorrow night is gumbo night. Anne makes a roux to bring with her, and makes a gumbo out of all the leftovers. It's always a highlight of the week.
This is such a great group of folks. It's been fun having some new folks here, especially the new family-member-to-be, Amanda. Dennis and Lisa left about noon.
No Mexican Train tonight, but some played Jenga. Margaret and Amanda worked on the wedding invitation list - all these social questions about how to address things - to say nothing of trying to guess who will be likely to show up. This is a whole new experience for all of us. The bridesmaids' dresses are a dark red, so all colors will have to be chosen around that.
Today's picture is from our deck, looking west along the beach.
