Tough Duty... but "somebody" has to do it

Bright and early Tuesday morning Donna and I were up and went out to walk the beach. (The two husbands had been up TOO late Monday night sitting on the balcony “debating” life’s problems. They needed to sleep in to recharge their batteries for the new day.) It was another GORGEOUS day in Panama City Beach…sunny and already warm! Every single person we met while walking on the beach was friendly and as happy as we are to be here!
Upon return to the condo the gentlemen were awake, and we all had coffee on our fantastic balcony. We decided to go out for breakfast to a waffle place across the street. Once again we ate way too much and chatted nonstop, too.
We then headed to a Winn Dixie grocery store to get supplies and groceries for the condo for our week. After unpacking the groceries we headed down to the pool to enjoy the gorgeous weather. (It was sunny and 78 degrees today!) It was a “full house” by the heated pool! We swam in the bath-water temperature pool, talked with people from many different states, relaxed in the sun, and read our books/kindles. Then we went down to the beach, about twenty steps from the pool. There were para-gliders, motor-driven para-gliders, and beautiful kites to watch. We waded into the ocean, but it was just too cold to swim in. (The kiddos didn’t seem to mind the cold and were having a blast in the ocean…brrr!) Tommy and Donna went back to sit by the pool, and Ladd and I did a long walk along the beach. Ladd went back up to the condo to start the sauce for dinner, Tommy went back up to rest, and Donna went back up to read. I was not yet willing to give up on the “sun time” and stayed by the pool to read my kindle. What a gorgeous day!
We had our “happy hour” out on the balcony, as did many other “residents” of the “Dunes of Panama”. For dinner Ladd made an excellent lasagna and garlic bread. (He actually made enough for twelve people instead of four. Anyone want to come over for lasagna? LOL)
Our dishes are done, so I’m heading out now to read on the balcony before bedtime. Day two in Panama City Beach was just as much fun as day one. Our time here is going too quickly, but I am enjoying every single minute! Night!
