Happy July 4th!

Savannah's flight to Washington, DC went well. She was a little apprehensive about flying alone, but I think once she was settled in she did just fine. I was able to go all the way to the gate with her and I watched them walk her down the walkway to the plane and Jewell was in DC at the gate when she got off. I love it when a good plan comes together! They enjoyed three days in Washington DC and toured the Capitol, The White House, saw the fireworks from the hotel room, toured the Newseum, did a bus tour of the city, went to the zoo, and some other things too! They took the train from DC to NYC and have just gotten settled in there. They will spend the week there and see several plays and do some tours. I look forward to seeing her next week and hearing all about it!

Since Savannah was doing a pretty cool trip, we figured that Vince might like to do something too. We booked a last minute room on Marco Island and Vince was glad that the pool had a slide and especially liked the arcade (even though we only spend a couple of dollars in there). He tried several different foods off the buffet (as he now refers to it, the buff), but his favorite meal there was from McDonald's! We enjoyed the fireworks from our balcony and spent some time reading and watching the waves roll in. It was our first time to Marco and we really enjoyed it. I think we would like to go back when it's not a peak weekend.
