Beach Day 4

With all the rain that was hitting the coast, we decided to visit Naval Air Station Pensacola. We first visited Advanced Redoubt, but it was raining and Aunt Cynthia's hair was getting messed up, so we left for the indoors.
Then we went to the National Naval Aviation Museum. I got to learn about Navy aviation and even sit in a few cockpits.

New Recliner

There are six years between my next cousin and me, so Granddad gave me one of the recliners he had at his house. I decided to relax in the beach hotel room.

Beach Day 2

I caught some ZZZ's under the tent.Uncle Wesley decided I needed to cover my belly button.Then dad joined in the nap.Tonight we ate at the famous Peg Leg Pete's. I got a sand pail full of chicken tenders and french fries.I put the sand pail on my head after dinner. Nash helped out.Then Hayley took me to feed the fish.

Literally!Cousin Micah found a sanddollar and gave it to me.Dad is a dork!I helped put him under the sand.Do you like my sand moustache and beard? I kept grinding the sand in my teeth but I never seemed to get the crytals to crack.

5yr Anniversary (early trip)

Before heading to Pensacola Beach with the Grantham side of the family for vacation, Mandy and I dropped Watson off with my parents and drove to Savannah to stay the night. My brother and the younger of my two sisters were born in Savannah, so it was a city we frequented to see friends and walk River Street. We had a great time and visited a couple of neat places.

The Pirates House is a local national landmark and was always a place we stopped when I was a kid. Mandy and I sat next to the hidden trap door in the Captain's Room. Here, sailors who had fallen asleep from drunkenness would be taken to the rum cellar and then down an underground tunnel that opened at the Savannah River a few blocks away. They were then sold into slavery for 10-12 dollars and often woke up on a ship that had already set sail for some foreign land.

We drove down US-HWY-80 and visited Tybee Island and took a look at the famous Tybee Island Lighthouse.
On River Street, we had to stop by and see the statue of Florence Martus, Savannah's Waving Girl.

We also took a tour of the Owens-Thomas House, considered the "finest example of English Regency architecture in the United States."
