I have gratitude today for...
* getting out in the morning and getting grocery shopping done for the week---we did our usual BJ's, Wal-Mart & Publix run. 
* beautiful weather for sitting in the backyard today. After lunch I laid out in the backyard until Kevin, Jen & Ashlyn arrived. 
* fun times hanging in the yard, drinking beers and talking with KB, Jen, Andy & Dave. It just so happened to work out that they were in FL when we were. Dave drove up from West Palm Beach. 
* taking the trolley to the pier. We had dinner & drinks and listened to some live music. Ashlyn was having a great time watching the band. It was great to spend our first day of vacation with good friends!.
