The Kids are Coming, The Kids are Coming!

Our daughter, her husband and their two boys visited us right before this Corona thing blew up.  I told them to be sure and sanitize their hands and stuff after they got off their plane.  So they made it here in one piece and no one got sick from the plane ride.

While they were here, we did go to the Yacht Club for pancake breakfast before it was closed

Otherwise, the activities we did were pretty close to home.  Like

Fishing on the dock with live shrimp

I was surprised at the number of different fish they were able to catch right from the dock.  Gary got his finger bit by one fish while he was trying to take it off the hook.  It drew blood and everything.  Good thing the First Mate came to the rescue with a band-aide and some Neosporin.

Kayak rides down the dangerous canal.

Everyone seemed to have a good time.  But eventually it was time to leave and head back to reality.  sad emoji Probably a good thing they left when they did….

    Your very colorful spider is called a Spiny Orb Weaver Spider AND they come in different colors!
    You did some darn cool things together! Hopefully, it will tide you over until you are together again.

    Did the pool close for the roof?
    Or did someone find a Baby Ruth in the pool?
    Remember Caddyshack?
