So last week was down in HH for the yearly vacation. Although this time it was just me,
isabel79 and
sparkyboy. They flew down from NY, and since I didn't feel my car was big enough for the three of us and our luggage (at least comfortably), rented a car for the trip. I went for an intermediate SVU, getting a Jeep Renegade Trailhawk from the rental place. It had some neat features that I liked, though I was a bit precarious about it at first since the back was a little shorter than I expected. But since I could stack stuff higher in the back, it definitely had more cargo space than Hiro. But all in all, a fun ride.
It was a fun and interesting time. It was nice to finally get my own room and bed. And we could hit the stores and not have to wait on a half dozen people, or wait for the old folks to get back from church for breakfast. Not that we went out much. Like after I picked up E on Saturday, we just killed time and ate out at Outback as we waited for me brudder's flight to come in. I guess there were storms in the midwest, which somehow delayed the flights in Savannah, and his flight kept getting pushed back. Sunday we spent most of the day after church hitting like Wal-mart and Kroeger buying groceries for the week.
Didn't really want to venture out Monday, since it was the Holiday and didn't want to lose my parking spot. So hit the pool in the morning, and A cooked up some steaks for dinner, caught up on PLL and Scream since he hadn't seen any of this season and the new eps were on Tuesday.
Tuesday we hit Tangiers. Like I said, it was cool to go around and then get to leave when we were actually done, as opposed to having to wait for the aunts.
Went to Carabba's for dinner Wednesday, since it was next to Adventure Cove. Intended to go mini-golfing there, but alas, there was a thunderstorm. And E had left over dessert, so rather than leaving it in the cart to melt while we killed time in the arcade or something waiting for the rain to let up, we just went home.
The rest of the week just loafed around, hitting the pool in the mornings and watching Hallmark channel's Christmas in July special and other TV at night. By the time Saturday rolled around, had breakfast at IHOP since we could take our sweet time since we had to be out by 10, but their flight wasn't until 3pm.
Actually got back by 5pm. I was going to return the rental on Sunday, but since
clevemire misread an e-mail I sent earlier in the week, ended up clearing out the car real quick to return it that night. K picked me up and we went back to his place and met up with the GMA for dinner.
TV commentary:
The Fosters- Aw, Callie! But ha, how opportune, it seems like that all came out at the perfect time since the Moms seemed to forget about why they were lecturing her in the first place.
