Fun in the Sun

Andy and I have taken advantage of every free second we have together to go out and do fun things like going to the beach, fishing with Bob, and golfing.

Our first stop was Clearwater Beach. The sand is white and the water is warm...what more could we ask for???.....

....less people!!! :-)

The beach was so crowded the day we went. This picture doesn't give the crowds justice. It was absolutely packed.

Bob and his friends hang out at our apartment complex and fish in the Bay. They catch mostly catfish, but have seen black-tipped sharks, sting rays, a manatee, and horseshoe crabs. Andy and I will walk down and hang out with them every once and a while. The boys sure have fun!

Bob gave me his fishing pole so he could go grab something from his apartment. My job was to just hold it, but I ended up showing off my fish catching skills and reeled in a 2 1/2 lb catfish! ;-) Ha ha.

Skyler weighing the fish. I made sure they released him back to his home. :-)

There are lizards EVERYWHERE! This one was very inquisitive and kept blowing up his neck to show off the pretty colors.

Andy's favorite thing to do is golf.

He saw a 15 ft alligator right where he is standing about 2 weeks ago.
I'm kinda glad he wasn't out the day I was there :-)

(Yeah, the knee brace is pathetic, but I can't do much without it :-( ) .

The wind was really strong that day. You can see how much the palm tree is blowing.

Andy teeing off. He makes it look easy!

We are looking forward to more adventures here in FL! Andy's brother Glenn and his wife Heather are coming in June and bringing their 3 adorable kids--Bayley, Isaac, and Noah. I am so excited to have them come!!! We probably go to Busch Gardens Africa while they're here :-)
