It’s a little nutty at the beach

We packed up the heathens and drove 800 miles only to find out the forecast for the next two days called for a high temp of 50.

Joy to the world. God has a sense of humor. Oh yes, he does.

So then we pack up the heathens and drive an hour to the Mobile Science Center, where I spend $40 so my kids can run through at breakneck speed thus eliminating any chance of actual learning whatsoever.

I stopped at the Mobile town square so I could commune with nature and get some inner peace…actually, I was having a quiet moment and asking God to save me from the hell that was commencing in the Rover. Then God sent me a sign that things could be worse as I was approached by a hoard of rabid squirrels who wanted to climb up my leg.

The kids are bad but at least they don’t give me rabies when they bite.

Amen.

    Pet squirrels? I just learn new stuff everyday. DJ, glad to hear you are having such a fun break. All four of our vehicles are going in the shop this week! The fun is spreading.

    Dearest Farm Chick,
    Has SAM demolished the whole fleet again? Does Rico need to send the emergency response team from corporate? I see you are having all the fun you can handle with the new herd and a new dog.

    UGH! Just plain UGH! I hate when vacations turn out that way! (It seems like EVERY time we try to go to a beach EVER it happens that way. Rain, cold, Yuck.)
