Pensacola with family

---

We are finally about to take our youngest grandson, Timmy, camping. He was supposed to go last year, but life got in the way and we couldn’t leave home. So this year is it! We have been looking forward to this trip, although it will be a bit odd, with the closings and problems caused by Covid-19. So, we may have an abbreviated trip, but we have a new camper and excited campers, so we will have fun.



We left home on Wednesday, after packing the camper on Tuesday while dodging the massive rainfalls (we measured over 2½ inches) and stifling heat and humidity. We encountered some rain and saw lots of flooded fields in Tennessee and northern Mississippi, but ran through very little rain on our way down to Pensacola.



Once here we had fun visiting with David, Misty, Daniel and Timmy, along with Michael, Jamie, Sean, Jenna and Colt, who are down here vacationing this week. Thursday we all boated to the beach facing the ICW at the cut into Pensacola Bay. Friday, we boated to the beach on the Gulf side of Ft. Pickens, where the Gulf of Mexico was so beautiful and the breezes were wonderful. We loved watching the guys surf fishing and the kids playing in the water.



Today, they again went to the beach, but Kerry and I decided to stay home and catch up on laundry, blogging and resting up. They will be home in time for pizza and fireworks tonight.



More later...

We were out in the Gulf on Jack’s new boat today, and the water is beautiful, fishing wasn’t all that grand, but Jack hooked a shark, but couldn't get it up from the bottom—-which was a good thing!!!
