I’m easing into vacation a bit more. Yesterday we took my son to a lighthouse and then an arcade. We went to the beach for a short amount of time afterward. The UV index is very high and I could feel my shoulders burning through the sunscreen within an hour so I hightailed it back to the house. I ended up taking a nap for a couple hours. The beach really takes it out of me. I think it’s a combo of the sun and playing in the water.

Today I felt better about getting up late because all the early risers have gone on a fishing trip. It’s just me, my son, and RS’s two cousins in the house and the cousins are late sleepers too. So getting up at 8:15 wasn’t awkward for me. I have program today and tomorrow from 10-1. Tomorrow it’s supposed to storm all day so we might take my son bowling. He was supposed to go to the water park with the cousins but that’s definitely not going to happen!

The people should be back from fishing by the time I sign off program so we might head down to the beach for more sandcastle building. But it’s a high UV index again today so I’m sure ill have to take off pretty quick again.

I believe we’re going over RS’s other cousin’s beach house for dinner on Friday which I am nervous about because I won’t be able to escape outside or to our room. And there will be twice as many people there. I hope RS will be willing to leave a little early. He’s been very understanding and so has his family.
