More Vacation?

Yes, a month has passed, and we're on vacation again (sort of). My company's annual trip is this weekend in Vail, and we brought both girls. It's been so long since I've blogged in large part because I've responsible for a lot of the logistics for this trip, so the last 4 weeks have been very busy.

Husband's #2 reason for bringing Bean here was to get her on skis. And he did! Husband, Bean, Uncle Chris, and Uncle Chris' dog hit the very teeny slopes today. Check it out!

The last day was one of the best. Another Maria's breakfast to start followed by a long walk on the beach exploring tide pools and scenery.

Gilligan's Island?

And finally we had to head to the airport. It was raining, and we rode in golf carts. We arrived slightly muddy, slightly buzzed, and very happy.


We're very broken up about leaving

Belizin' It - Day 5 - Bone Fish, Tacos, and Pickup Trucks

Husband had another good morning of fishing. 3.5 hours of fishing = 3 bone fish. Apparently, bone fishing is pretty tough. Even with the guide's help, presenting the flies to the fish is difficult.

I spent the morning by the pool with my laptop, book, and iPod. Internet access has enabled me to stay connected to a work project (not the most successful vacation from that point of view), but it's been just right for me.

Maria chef'd up another fantastic lunch. Homemade tortillas, carne asada, sauteed shrimp, shrimp ceviche, homemade pico de gallo, and pina coladas, of course. It was my favorite lunch so far.

We went to the 2nd JJW concert last night. On Tuesday, he played solo. Last night, he had a drummer and a bass player. Our seats were better (5 rows from the front), and I thought the music was fantastic. I have 3 new favorite JJW songs: Cowboy Boots and Bathin' Suits, The Cape, and Pickup Truck Song.
