E(n)DIST(e)O BEACH



Edisto Beach,
population 691,
 a little South Carolina coastal town...
 
 
the perfect location for an urban family from Jersey!!
 
 
 ("Hey, where are all the people?!?!?")

 
Who wonder "where are the chain restaurants?,
 tourist attractions?,
bodies of water without alligators?,
 
traffic lights?,
noise?,
and people who react fast to situations...like serving food!?
WE ARE GOING CRAZY!!"
 
 ~~~
And then reinforcements arrived,
 
 
and the party began...

 
^^^
(Well, at least one person was a partier!)
Thank you, ShagFest, for providing entertainment from our balcony!
 
 
 
The town was still sleepy...
 
 
 
 
 
 
and
we had to find entertainment wherever we could...
 
 
 
 
 
^^^
Always the Princess
 
 
But add into the equation family who hasn't seen
each other in WAY. TOO. LONG.
 
 
 
 
 
 
and the setting becomes perfect!
 
 


 
Cousins,
big




and small,




have sweet moments together,

and they don't mind being seen carrying sippy cups...


 
~~~
 There are a number of
"You can't choose family...."
quotes
 out there,

but there is one thing for sure,

if you could choose family,




R's,

I would choose you!


Let's do this again next year,

or

next month,

or

next week!
 

 

 
We miss you!

"Work" Convention

 
 
 
Work
 last week was so grueling...
 
There were board meetings....
 
 
run by a strict taskmaster...
 
 
and, also,
"board"walk meetings... 
 

where the work was quite difficult, but someone had to do it!!!
 
 
During the week,
we had some
team building exercises... 
 







  












 










and
Corporate dinners...
 
where a member of management
 
 bestowed two lovely maidans with a flower!
 
 
Just so you know,
it wasn't all work and no play!
 
There was some down time
 
 
where co-workers solidified their bonds
 

 
and got re-aquainted with each other.

 
 
Overall,
it was a beautiful place for a convention 

 
with many new discoveries
 
 

 and
the only thing that could have made it any better was if
all of the co-workers were able to attend...
 
you were missed Christa, Robert and Joseph!
Keep your calendars clear for the next "work" convention!!!
Then it won't be "work" at all,
but all play!
