Long Drive

Thursday my wife and I unloaded the children, except for my BB, and we headed North to Jacksonville. Mrs. Molly's Nana is in pretty bad shape, and we agreed that she would always regret it if she never said goodbye. So, we made the three hour trip, and found an empty house. Apparently the Aunt had taken Nana in to get checked out. (Nana had fallen in her bedroom, and split open her head, when she hit the dresser.) To kill some time, we went down to the Jacksonville Landing. Neither one of us had been there in years, and we felt like tourists. There are some really cool restaurants and bars there, but from the looks of things the shops must have blown their loads during the Super Bowl, because there are only a few left.

After that we went over to the Regency area of town, and had dinner at Red Lobster. It was just nice to have a dinner with the two of us. (BB slept)

Finally around 7:30 we were able to go and visit with Nana. We introduced her to BB, took some pictures, hung out for two hours, and then headed back home.

Mrs. Molly and I did get a little frisky in the car on the way home, and if those truckers could have seen in the windows, I imagine we would have had an 'escort' until we took our exit.

We got home around two, and didn't get to sleep until around 4:00.......I had to get up at 8:00 to get the kids, but it was definitely worth it.

It sounds like a nice trip, even though it was under less than perfect circumstances. But at least she did get to see her Nana and introduce the baby.

And the frisky-business on the way home sounds like a good way to keep awake on a long drive. Congrats to that. lol
