It's already been well over a month since Phil and I enjoyed our little getaway to St. Augustine, Florida...the country's oldest city.
We had a terrific weekend!
We had a terrific weekend!
This was overlooking the Fort.
We had dinner at a place called Salt Water Cowboys, and we enjoyed the sunset while feasting on oysters and shrimp.
This cross (15 stones long and 13 stones wide) represents when Ponce deLeon came to Florida in 1513. Phil and I sampled water from "The Fountain of Youth," so we'll probably live to be 122 years old.
Thanks to the wonderful reciprocity that Phil has with Busch Gardens, we had free admission to many of the local attractions...including the Wax Museum and Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum.
This one was for Keith.
This one was for Tory.
This one was just for fun.
Test Your Passion Factor. Ha!
This was at the Alligator Farm. Phil was in heaven with the collection of hundreds of birds, gators, and crocodiles. I really thought I deserved "Wife of the Year Award" after spending a few hours touring the "farm."
These birds (can't remember their name...sorry, Phil) were doing something special (can't remember the term...sorry, Phil).
It was pretty spectacular. :)
Our "Little Keeper" stayed home with Grandpa and Grandma, but she certainly enjoyed her souvenirs: stuffed alligator and Alligator Farm t-shirt.
St. Augustine was definitely TWO-THUMBS-UP. I didn't expect to enjoy it so much, but I'm excited to get back there someday. If you're ever in north/east Florida, check it out!!!

Looks like a great time!!! I really had a great laugh about the some kind of bird doing something special comment. That's totally something I would do, especially if it was important to DB. And yes, you do deserve wife of the year!!!
I've been to St. Augustine several times, it's probably my favorite city in Florida!
Oh, and your question on my post today...I'll send you an email on Facebook:)
1. Picture #2, nice angle.
2. Why not 123 years old?
3. Reciprocity...good word choice, you'd get an A for that part of 6+1 traits
4. Tiger is looking a little gaunt
5. I had to zoom in (twice) to see 'sexy' because of the glare
6. Come on, I know the Alligator Farm was your idea...
7. The caption for the birds in the tree was the best yet!
8. Clare looks like a disshelved surfer, but cute nonetheless!!
Love the pictures! Glad you had a good time. And, it's funny that Clare has no pants on... she was pulling that stunt when I was there too, and I'm glad to see it's continued!
Who did you get to take that first picture? I love it!
