I'm back safe and sound

In case you were wondering, I went to Saugatuck, MI over the weekend, just a few highlights:

  • Dodging fallen trees in Chicago from the massive storm the night before
  • A Pinky crushed in the window
  • Michael not being allowed to touch power window buttons
  • Bypassing flooded highways and byways
  • Having the Pool Bar close 15 minutes after we get there
  • Being called "chunky" by the fat boys
  • People learing through the window at us during dinner only to realize we were sitting right by the posted menu
  • Scary woods
  • Shopping in quaint shoppes
  • Breakfast with Chicago friends
  • Watching fish being cleaned
  • Sitting by the pool drinking margaritas and soaking up the rays
  • Wearing my most "revealing" bathing suit and realizing it was actually quite modest.
  • Meeting Chicago people that live up the street
  • Golf Cart ride to the lake to watch the sun set
  • Dinner on friends patio surrounded by candle light and crickets
  • Sleeping late
  • Laughing, more laughing and laughing until you start choking, even at the most inapporpriate times.
  • Teasing all the boys (well we thought we were teasing them)

V-A-C-A-T-ION

I feel like Sandra Dee when she sang that Vacation Song...oh wait that wasn't Sandra Dee.....it was one of the blonde chicks from the 60's though, I know that much.

I'm currently at the Happiest Place in the World - well I'm actually about 2 miles from there, but close enough to smell all of the happiness, with my Parents and my Sister. Got here yesterday, and fortunately got out of Chicago before the big storm hit. It was so hot today that we couldn't stand to sit by the pool, we had to go back to the condo and sit in the A/C.....

We did get some wirelss internet access today, but it's $23 for 3 days, can you believe that? I'll post some pix if I get a chance, I'm taking a ton of them.

Hope you're staying warm where-ever you are!
