We do have the first question answered! 61 has chosen the official swim trunks color, HOT PINK! I am not sure what 6 feels about that color, I am thinking it might clash with my bald head, and 6 is comfortable with his masculinity so, I guess all we need to do now is for the guys to try and find something in that color!

Have you ever done something when at the time you thought you were wondering why people were giving you funny looks? Not that this ever happened to me, but when I was thinking about this week’s blog this incident hit me like a ton of bricks. Later one afternoon, I was headed back to the condo pre or post happy hour 6 just can’t remember, little details seem to slip one’s mind when they get a few years under their belts. As I walked down the boardwalk towards the parking lot, I noticed a group of people standing at the end of the boardwalk. I was thinking what in the world are they all doing there. They had their cameras out and the mothers had their little children on their shoulders, and they all seemed to be focused on something in the grassy area between the boardwalk and the parking lot. I was about 30 people deep and as usual had all of the left over beach stuff, (chairs, coolers, towels) therefore was in no mood to stand there and wait. I put my stuff down so that 6 could figure out what was so intriguing to all of those people. Soon enough I spotted a nice deer family grazing on the grass. I was not sure if they were all just nature lovers, or were afraid to walk towards the deer. Well since I have more patience than most, 6 looked at them, and then proceeded to pushed my way thru the crowd, trying to make my way back to the condo.  As you might imagine the deer took off and then the looks started. I never thought anything about it, until now. I bet those people where nature lovers and have never seen a deer so close, I guess it is too bad that I did not have a shot gun, because they would have been in for a real education! We would have had venison for dinner that night! That brings me to another point, the other day I got myself a nice bottle of Duck commander wine! I think that I might just have to save it for the next bon fire that we have. We could get some of those fine ball jars with the handles, fill it with the wine, while 8 uses several cans of lighter fluid to start the fire, and 7’s car is playing the sound track to Christmas vacation. You ‘all are invited!

Words of wisdom: Just because something seems routine to you, does not mean that others may not be appreciating what you think is routine.
