I am not to keen on getting sun burned in this 95 degree weather! But, the last couple of evenings we would head out around 5pm and spend 4 hours on the beach until it was dark and the Turtles were on their way to the beach to make their nest.

  8. Oh the joy in the down time with our nearest and dearest. *smile* Sorry it took me so rediculously long to make time to leave my comment. Thanks for making time to leave a comment at my spot. *smile* By the way, those are little juke box things with a list of songs not just one this time. Like that a bit better I think. *smile* Have a great day. Sincerely, Mommy of two little blessings & so much more!
