|
Ryan and Kaci... |
|
have been great about hangin' out with us old folks this week.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But when I offered them the keys to my truck... |
|
this is what we got to see of them. |

Tuesday July 5, 2005
- We had a busy day today. Fishing and lounging on the beach
and by the pool, combined with a trip to St. Augustine. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kaci and Ryan headed to the beach early. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Where Ryan went fishing... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and Kaci lounged in the sun. |
|
(With tunes and a good book.) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Julie... |
|
got pool time AND beach time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kaci helped Ryan... |
|
when a "mean ole fish" finned him. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then we headed off to St. Augustine... |
|
because we have some of their grass in our yard. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We were all tickled to find an Alpaca Emporium... |
|
because Kaci is an Alpaca nut.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next...Kaci & Ryan boarded a boat... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and launched to the sky! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and HIGHER! |
|
1400 feet! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryan and Kaci... |
|
survived. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Julie at the entrance to O.C.Whites. |
|
A really cool haunted restraunt. The building is over 200 years old. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryan and Kaci... |
|
were startled by one of the restraunt's patrons. |
|
|

Monday July 4, 2005
- In addition to being one of the most beautiful places on earth, Amelia
Island has one of the greatest 4th of July celebrations known to man.
Two air shows and a fireworks display that can't be beat...makes you
PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN. Kaci is an elusive photography subject, but I
have designated tomorrow to be "photograph the kids day". The fish were
really biting today! I miss Syd. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our friend Ryan Fitzgerald... |
|
caught a couple of Whiting. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kaci... |
|
wetting her toes in the Atlantic Ocean. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryan caught a few whiteing... |
|
but then he caught this MAN EATER! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Controversy on the beach! |
|
Ryan's catch of a Hammerhead Shark, sparked a bit of interest. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The air show was outstanding! |
|
|
|

Sunday July 3
- Offshore Fishing Day.
|
|
|
|
We went fishing today.
Julie and Beth in front...me and Jessie in back. |
|
|
|
Jessie got big fish of the day.
Nice Barracuda. |
|
|
|
Julie...
...with a nice catch. |
|
|
|
I got a King!
|
|
|
|
And a SHARK!
Doin' my part to keep the beaches safe. |
|
|
Friday July 1
- Highest Point in the state of Florida...345 feet above sea
level. I miss Pookie already.

|
|
|
|
|
Florida High Point |
|
Highest Point in the state of Florida |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After great anticipation... |
|
the coveted summit of Florida was attained. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...the others seemed to have lost interest. |
