Chris rounded a corner into a stiff breeze. Leaning into it as he ran he shouted at the wind, "Stop pushing me! Stop pushing me!"

Trey wondered, "Mom, did we get Chris when you were Michigans?"
(The word he was looking for was "missionaries" and the answer was "no".)

We passed through four draw bridges on our trip up the intracoastal waterway (ICW) today, stopping for the night at a marina just past the Circus bridge in Venice. Since it was within walking distance, Dave thought it would be interesting to go tell the bridge tender "thank you for the opening" in person for a change. Alas! His perch high above the water was secure and he didn't respond to our knock through the safety glass on the bridge level.
As we walked away, I pointed out the recliner visible through the window in his "office" above and our friend Ben (along for the voyage) spotted a TV. Max said, "I just realized I have discovered my dream job - I want to be a bridge tender."
Thank you for contributing your tax dollars to our trip to Bradenton! Wouldn't have been possible in the 10' seas on the Gulf of Mexico today.
