Salt water, Sun tan, and Frank Sinatra

Today was the first day of the "family reunion".  So far it's been great.  I woke up at about 8 to a home cook breakfast.  A bacon and egg sandwich.  Then we departed the condo for the beach house where we met everyone and played in the ocean.  It was great seeing Heather, Matthew, Aunt Martha Ellen and everyone else.

We played in the ocean for a bit where I made sure to wear plenty of sunscreen.  We ate a little lunch, nothing like southern ham sandwiches and then played in the water again.  We laughed and joked and just floated in the water.  It's amazing how much fun you can have just floating along in the ocean with good company.  Kind of like The Little Mermaid except in reverse.  After we were all pruned it was time to get out and head home to get ready for Hollywood night.  We are all dressing up as famous people.  We are even having the Oscars, or the "bama" version at least.  Now I must retreat and put on my Frank costume.  I will report on the evening's activities a little later.
