We enjoyed the past weekend celebrating the 45th anniversary of the Traveling Americans. There was quite a turnout for this event with current members as well as several past members. Like all of our get togethers there was great food and conversations.
Sunday afternoon Todd, Beth and the kids stopped down for a visit and left Parker and Gabi with us. These 2 little ones were going along to Myrtle Beach in the motorhome. This was their first stay in the motorhome. On Monday morning, Labor Day, we packed up and headed south for about 200 miles. We stopped in Selma, N.C. for the night. Then Tuesday we finished our travels to Myrtle Beach. It was a little tiresome for Parker and Gabi but overall they didn't do too bad. Parker, especially, was excited to be going to the Beach. After getting into PirateLand Campground we went to a couple local stores to get bathing suits for the kids and beach toys. It was really hot and humid and then we had a thunderstorm which cooled things down a little. Presently, there are 7 units parked together from the Traveling Americans club. Some will stay for a month and others lesser time and 1 unit will be joining us later. Since we are the only ones with little ones we will devote our attention to Parker and Gabi for the period that they will be with us.
Today, Wednesday, we spent about 3 hours on the beach. It is another hot, humid day. Parker had a great time playing in the water. Gabi was more leery of the waves but would stand out in the surf holding on to Tom or me. Parker had been to a beach 2 years ago but this was Gabi's first time. After eating a late lunch we all feel asleep. It's hard work playing on the beach.
