First bit of good news, it appears that the Earth did not end on 12/21/2012.
Since Mom and Dad bought a townhome in Delray Beach, we have spent Christmas break in Florida. There is something nice about getting out of the winter for 10 days. It is a part of my nature to feel compelled to see each museum, and local attraction, often to the annoience of Ilene, and the confusion of most everyone else. I also, had an obsesion about getting a "Show-off Tan". time has mellowed me, or at least I have lost some of the desire to fight for beach time and 8:00am wake-up calls needed to ccheck off the long list of "Must do, Must see" items on my list. OK, truth be told, we have been there enough times that I don't have much on my must do list, and as I move further from the fantasy that I still look "Cool" on a beach; I have adjusted to the "Hang out game plan.
The truth is, our plans in Florida can get confusing. This is really a GOOD THING. We have a rather large group of people that we need to, and want to see. People laughed when I made my chart, but I did make some use of it over the time. Granted I had a few errors, and ther must be an easier way than using "Paint"
Now the first night we got in, it was near 2:00am; so we pretty much went right to sleep. The next morning we got up walked out to the car, I turned and saw The BATMOBILE parked in the space next to my parent's car.
Now it seemed reasonable to me to call my Dad and tell him the news, His response was,"Oh year, that car has been there for weeks, he lives in the unit next door." Funny, maybe it's just me, but it seems like that is something worth menssioning in one of the 4 phone cals we have daily. The 1966 Barris car is probably the coolist car ever built.
Most of the focus of the trip was to just relax and spend time with as a family, and with people that distance limits the amount of quality time we have together.
Ok, So I can't totally say ways from attactrations, or for that matter, any opportunty to take photos.
Now the city of Palm Beach was created so that very wealthy people have a way to spend large sums of money.
