Fun Weekend at the Beach




















Hoping to get a little warmer weather once again we drove down to Florida to the West Coast to be with 5 other couples at a beach house. The weather was not as warm for Florida as I wanted but sweater and jacket was the attire and it was okay. We couple go somewhere every year for four days mainly on the weekend as we have one who is a teacher and needs to get time off. Puzzles and food seems always to be the agenda as we ate both at the house and a couple of neat seafood places in Appalachicola, Florida about 10 miles from us. Great little seafaring town with lots of shrimp and oyster garb and boats. We did manage to get on the beach just a few steps from the house to do some shelling. Got a few starfish and lots of shells. Always glad to get home to the Mountains of Tennessee. No matter where you may go there is no place like home.
