The Beach was great this afternoon!! I picked up all of the sandollars that I could possibly want. They are so beautiful!! I could live here and make shell items for a living. God showed out once again when he made shells. They are just like our thumb print, each one, one of a kind. I have never seen so many shells. I can't wait to cover an old bottle with the shells. I need to look up my old faithful glue gun. Maybe I do need to go back to reality.... Night ya'll, Lynn

The vacation thing is great but.... it is also teasing. You go and enjoy yourself and then you have to go home. What a letdown. Reality sets in. You spend your days dreaming of the great time you had and want to go back. This is while you're slaving away at the job that you have. We are still enjoying our time on Jekyll but I know it's coming. I love my life and all that goes with it. But the pull of the sea and lighthouses are always at the back of my mind. Jesus is my lighthouse... I guess that this is why I love lighthouses SO much. We had a picnic lunch today at the lighthouse on St. Simon's Island and then climbed the light. I still haven't figued out how to add pictures to my blog. But I am going to figure it out so that you can see the view that we saw today. A-mazing does not do it justice!! God really showed off when He made the world. Anywhere you go, it is beautiful. We are looking forward to Tuesday am. We were able to get a limited reservation to go to Sapelo Island and see the lighthouse there. I cannot wait. Night ya'll, Lynn

What is on my mind this afternoon ? The countdown has officially started !!!!! WOO HOO !!!!!
4 days till we start celebrating
4 days til I'm free
a short, short workweek
4 days to my favorite beach on the east coast
4 days till I can pretend that I am retired or wealthy enough for trips anytime I want to go
4 days to see my favorite lighthouse SSI or St. Simon's Lighthouse

What is all of this babbble you say?????
James and I are leaving in the truck, pulling our vacation home to Jekkyl Island on Thursday morning to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary. There are no campgrounds on SSI so we camp on neighboring Jekkyl Island. We plan a day trip to SSI to see the lighthouse, walk around in town and visit our favorite bookstore. The rest of the time, we will do whatever.... read, scrapbook, watch TV, sleep.....
Can you tell that I'm excited???
Now off to take a nap and to dream of the week to come.mmmmmmmm

This weekend has been so fun and relaxing!! Friday night, we went to the Four Seasons and had steak. We went to see the movie, The Help. Today, we ran errands and ate at The Sweetery!! It was slap yo momma, good. Then we came home and cleaned up the house and ate with the seniors group. They are a wonderful group. Night ya'll, ((*-*))
