Final Day of Sun...

The view of the river from our back deck.

We were going to leave for home Thursday night, but decided to enjoy one last day in the warm sun... because when will we see it again? Trav and the girls spent most of the day in the pool/Lazy River, while I packed our stuff and worked on report cards. {The anxiety nightmares about missing the deadline started...}

After an afternoon of pool time, Travis realized his wedding ring was missing. Gulp! We turned the condo inside out looking for it, and turned up nothing. So, he went back to the river and began searching the water. Still nothing. Finally, he checked at the lost and found... and ta-da! The ring had slipped off his finger {I can't imagine having this problem...} and got sucked into the filter system. An employee found it during their routine check and turned it in. Thank you, Mr. or Ms. Employee!

After this little fiasco {and a quick stop to Target for snacks} we began the journey north. Trav likes to travel at night. For one, he's used to working graveyard shifts, and secondly, the girls spend the majority of the drive sleeping. I don't know why he would want to avoid their sisterly love after being stuck in the car for 8+ hours?!

The drive was a long one, but so worth it. We had such a wonderful time! The girls loved every minute in the pool, Trav loved golfing and the weather, and I loved our relaxed lazy days. I felt refreshed and even ready to head back to reality... and work.
