visit from Dad and Marilyn

This week my Dad and Marilyn came for a few days.

The weather always says, cloudy and raining.

Don't ever believe the forecast here on the island

The guys had lots of sea food.

We took a tour of the Gullah heritage, it was very interesting.

A time to rest

I am still having trouble with posting the way I want, see half way down for introduction to this post.

Our reading room being used for reading!!

We went biking, any guesses where we found Eli?

Yes, Sam is in the basket, sorry he got cut out of the photo.

This is a comfortable living room.

As some of you have found out, the only time BIll and I "relax and enjoy" our home and beach is when we have over night guests. It's kinda hard to explain, but when it's just the two of us we feel like we should be, cleaning, unpacking, exercising, volunteering, etc. When people come, we sit, swim and sun.

Last weekend, Eli, Emily and her parents, Ann and John came to visit.

We sat at the pool.

We ate at the crazy crab for lunch.

making sandwiches

coloring for sukkot

Do you want to guess what we are doing? Yes, we are all trying to catch a fish, they were jumping so high we were determined to catch one in our bare hands

Gotta get some yoga in

Sukkot 2009

The New Year has begun with a bang. I really have barely read my emails.

The next few post will kinda be out of order but I hope you are all just happy I post.

We put up our Sukkah on Tuesday and decorated it Wednesday.

This year we are able to have it on the deck instead of the grass where all the bugs live.

It makes it much or comfortable, not to mention it's 3 steps from the kitchen.

Today, Sunday, October 4th was the Beth Yam 2nd annual Sukkah Hopping.

This year we had about 20 "hoppers" up from last year's 6.

Shaking of the Lulav.

There are many more photos, but you get the idea.
