Just as the doctors ordered, we are enjoying our "time off" from appointments and medications. Enjoying it, but I still feel like we are living in an alternate reality - when you are on a perpetual vacation, is it really a vacation?

Don't get me wrong, this is a beautiful place and a part of our country that the girls have never seen. They do love an adventure. We are renting a house, exploring new towns like Saugatuck and South Haven, and building sand castles on the shores of Lake Michigan.

Erin is our little fish. If there's swimming to be had, she's in - even in 58 degree water! Shannon loves walking up and down the beach, but she has been not quite herself. A little more quiet, a little more sassy ... maybe she's just acting like an almost 13 year old on vacation with her family! So, we try to call her on her attitude just like we would if everything was normal...

One more full day ahead of us here. Lots of beach time and hopefully a walk to town for lunch. The forecast is for hot and humid weather with a chance for a thunderstorm to blow in across the lake. Works for me...
