We're here at Jim's house in Virginia Beach for the week. We came home from the Morrissey show Monday night and finished packing, loaded the van and hit the road around 12:30. I drove straight through and we got here around 4 am. We didn't even have to slow down.
We spent yesterday at the beach at Sandbridge with Jim. The kids were out in the water almost the whole time. It was soo much fun watching them have soo much fun. Ian was a DEMON on the boogie board. One them even broke under him out in the surf. I got out there with them for a while (on the remaining boogie board) and had a few good rides. Bri made sure everybody got enough munchies. Jim had a good time, but he didn't put on any sunblock and he got nuked. He was bright red when he got home.
Jim took us out for dinner at Seacrest after we showered, and we had a great meal. I had forgotten that they have really good hush puppies, but Ian hadn't--he said to the waitress, "can you give us hush puppies?" Then when they came he buttered them himself and made sure everybody got plenty. He even gave me the last one.
Then Jim took us to Handel's ice cream for dessert. This is really good ice cream. Jen and I got chocolate peanut butter cup brownie (I had 2 scoops in a waffle cone)--phenomenal.
Today we're going back around lunchtime to stake out a good place to watch fireworks tonight. The weather is supposed to be as good as yesterday, but a little warmer.
