Although our three-week adventure on the road had ended, we still had 26 more wonderful days to spend with Lauren before she flew to Springfield. On July 4, we were on Pine Island when she ...

You know I started this website because I had big plans to travel the states and then internationally to recruit people to work for this (what I thought) was an incredible National Real Estate Company. Little did I know that the owner would give up so easily when the economy tanked and instead of working together he was very quick to blame me the person that recruited over 300 people in a ...

... the place. At first he was nice when I was being checked in (although he had no idea what he was doing). But when I needed some maintenance done on my room (which wasn't even clean, it was filthy, dirty bathroom and unchanged sheets) he wasn't willing to help me. I had barely any water coming out of the shower and he seemed to not care that my room was dirty. He said he ...

After my OB appointment and Mom and Dad's dentist appointments, we hit the road. Arielle was pretty amazed to see a car engulfed with flames not long after we set off. (Everyone had made it out safely) We didn't make it out of Florida on the first day.

We now find ourselves having our "standard shots" in the same locations! This does not make good reading!!! A new spin is necessary or simply waiting till there is actually new and interesting "shots" to share with you ...

... amongst all the poverty and the non caring attitude about what anyone else might think of who you are and what you do. I found this all so refreshing and yeh I definitely think I will miss it. Right now I'm happy to be back in America, not really yet back to reality. The sun is shining, the weather is sweet and I'm still lost in the sweet dreams of the last few months wondering did it really happen or was I just dreaming....?

... and checked out the shark teeth being sold. Huge ones - some costing up to $800. They find them off the coast here and you can actually find small ones very easily just walking on the beach. Mom has a big jar of them. So many people in the area have a collection that it's surprising there are any left to find on the beach. We tell her she should throw them back in the water so ...

... the library for internet access and had I known I could have brought the camera to download some pictures - but I didn't. We are getting WiFi in spots but the speed is very slow so haven't written or sent pictures. Tomorrow I'm going on a cruise with Mum and Dad and I expect Richard will try to golf again. Weather continues to be great!

... up over a bare spot on my wall. I imagine it'll stay there for a long time - atleast until I get a date with someone who can weld stain-glass windows. All these dates require money, so I went on a casino cruise the other night to try to win big playing blackjack.
