Beachin It In Jax

So it's a little late, but what you gonna do. Em and I hit the road to Jacksonville (that should be a song title if it isn't already) this past Labor Day weekend for some much needed R&R and a visit with Gina and Tom-First off, let me just say that Mapquest is a bunch if liars. No way it's 5 hours, for some reason unbeknownst to the to of us in the car, the drive took 6 or so hours-which was a little longer than we had bargained for. We finally arrived in Jacksonville in the late afternoon, and spent the evening with Gina, Tom, their friends Laura and Don, and their little daughter Kacey, who is a barrel of laughs. We took a walk down to the beach, made our way to a Mexican restaurant with possibly the worst service in the history of the world, and proceeded to leave without eating when the waitress just up and ignored us for 25 minutes.
We went back to Gina and Tom's hung out at the house with some pizza, and watched Georgia Tech and Notre Dame, and hung out on their back porch laughing at-well, everything. Gina and Emmalee tend to do that.
We hit the beach on Sunday, and despite not having been on a beach since the last Iden excursion to Virginia Beach, I had forgotten how incredibly cool the beach is. After our time on the beach, we got in the car and Tom and Gina took us down the road to St. Augustine, the oldest city in North America. Can't remember the details behind it, but its OLD. We generally walked around, mocked those who were worth mocking, and took a look at the sights. Mom, you'll enjoy the picture of the "most photographed street in the world"-Although Im not sure what street it is, Tom said it's the most photographed street in the world, so who knows. Anyway, enjoy the pics......
