Yes, we are back from our trip. Here's a picture of how clear the water was. It never rained the whole time we were there. Highs were about 90 degrees.
Here's a picture of Kaitlyn and Lindsey in Uncle Drew's corvette. Don't you wish you were 18 again and riding around in a corvette at the beach?
Joe and I at The Crab Trap restaurant.
The adults, Joe and I, Joe's brother Drew, Chris (Joe's mother) and Jennifer (Joe's sister) and her husband, Zach.
The whole group of us...
Here's a picture of the box that contained Joe's ashes.
After we had our ceremony, we beached the boat and got out and played for awhile.
Drew's corvette.
Thursday evening, we took the Sea Blaster, a sunset cruise where you can see dolphins. Here's Joe, Steven and Hayden on my side of the boat.
Here's Kaitlyn, Lindsey, Drew, Jennifer and Zach on the other side of the boat.
The down side of this trip is you can drink all you want free (beer, wine, and soda). So I started drinking wine. The young man from Alabama (who was on this same ship 2 years ago) kept filling my wine glass every time it was empty (which was a lot) and I let him. Needless to say, I got blasted on the Sea Blaster! Where is that guy, anyway? My glass is empty again!
Apparently, I had a really good time and I yelled a lot of WOO HOOs into the wind too. I had such a good time, Joe gave me money to give the guy a tip. AND, I don't remember going to dinner and coming home. But, Kaitlyn has plenty of incriminating video that she was eager to show me the next day. So if you find it on You-Tube, please forgive me. Here's the guy after I gave him a tip....
On Friday, we flew Kristen in for her 21st birthday. We took her to Fudpuckers for her first "legal" drink. Here she is with her drink, she even shared with her dad.
Saturday evening, we started heading home. Here's a picture at the Louisiana welcome station.

On Wednesday of our trip, our group rented a pontoon boat and we all went out to scatter Joe Jondahl's (Joe's stepfather) ashes on Crab Island in the bay. Here's a picture of the front of the boat.
