Quick Update

This summer I am spending time with my great aunts and uncles in Florida and I’m going to try and keep my blog updated of what’s been happening on this trip.

The first whole week had been just a bunch of hanging out. I dragged my friend, Savannah Rohloff, along with me and she spent that time with me and my relatives. We did everything from visiting all my family that is living in the area to going to the park and reading the day away.

One day we went to see the ocean, but sadly that day didn’t have the best weather, so we didn’t stay for too long. We did eat at this really unique store that had just a few tables for dining in. The food was delicious, with fare that ranged from Panini’s to wonderfully seasoned home cooking. This shop was filled to the brim with beer selections. Being not one particularly fond of beer, I didn’t think it amazing, but it was still pretty cool and the shop had lots of other things to grab my attention. Mostly, it was a store with about four tables that people could stop at for some food.

Savannah (my friend, not me) left a week ago and now I’m ready to buckle down to get to work. One of the big reasons for my trip, is that I am going to help my great aunt Genny with all the genealogy stuff she has collected. I’m planning on helping her type out all her notes she’s written over the long time she has been collecting information and I’m going to put it altogether eventually.

On a more somber note, my aunts have run into a few minor health problems. They are all in their upper eighties to early nineties, so their health isn’t perfect to begin with, but just a few tiny setbacks have happened over the past few days. If you want to send up a quick prayer for them, that would be much appreciated.

Not much else is going on at the moment, but I’m hoping to get back to blogging and writing more now that school and finals are over and I’m starting to settle down here.
