The Good, The Bad, and The Gnarly




The Good: Beautiful, sunshiney days filled with soft sand between our toes, pushes on swings from Gampy (the kids I mean, I keep getting stuck in the toddler swings) and warm evenings without a jacket and the window all the way down. The best visit.




The Bad: Seriously cantankerous kids on an airplane. One with an ear infection we don't yet know about. The other with just an attitude problem. Oh. And 65 really agitated fellow travelers prone to giving us a weak smile and then an eye roll they think we don't see.




















Gnarly: The boozed-up 'lady' in line next to us as we embark, on the phone with her ever-lucky friend, citing specific details as to why she missed her first flight. Clues: new diagnosis of constipation. Chowing of several prunes for breakfast. Followed by airport hamburger (Danger Will Robinson!). Followed by copious imbibement of vodka. Followed by quality time in a seated position and one missed flight. Happy Trails!

Love the picture of the airplane stow luggage. Not sure how you pulled it off but its a keeper!
