Last week was Emma's spring break and we headed to Florida (gulf side) to see Steve's parents. One of my favorite parts of road trips is that I usually don't have to drive and can knit, knit, knit! As a result, Sassymetrical and Pettine (from last fall) are almost done. This year I even got some knitting done at the beach.
Carole will be able to identify which beach we were on.
Ocean + knitting = great relaxation!
While the men golfed on Wednesday, the ladies headed out for lunch and shopping in Venice. I got some beads for Emma to turn into necklaces for me and some new sunglasses. Later on I went to an outlet store and bought more jewelry - chunky costume jewelry. We'll see if I have the guts to wear it. :)
It's hard to believe that the school year is almost over here! Soon it will be summertime, summertime.
It looks like you had a wonderful time.

Did you have a Pina Colada at Sharky's? And did you find shark's teeth? And did you see my kids?? They were there last week one day, I know.
