Hey everybody. We’re back from vacation, but a car will be picking us up at three something today to take us to a business meeting. For the next few blog entries I’m going to go between notes from vacation and more current, like now news.
vacation notes:
We can see the beach from our balcony window. A white beach with that roll of deep blue water cut with paler green. It’s hot. Like tropical hot. I guess that shouldn’t come as a surprise, but damn it is hot. By day three I’d broken down and bought one of those light weight resort dresses that I normally wouldn’t be caught dead in. But it was loose and it breathed and I felt much cooler. Though I’ve never been able to figure out why the dresses, and matching shirts, always come in such bold patterns. Either the dress is designed to break up my pattern so I’d be camouflaged at a poolside party, or the bright colors must mean I’m venomous, or mimicking something else that is venomous. At least that’s the way nature works. But I was so much more comfortable that I’m actually considering buying a second dress in an even brighter pattern for tomorrow. We’re on vacation. We’d rather be comfortable than worry about fashion.
Right now we’re wearing sarongs (pieces of cloth that theoretically you tie until it makes clothing). Let’s just say the theory is definitely not for public viewing. I’ve got to go help Jonathon decide what we’re packing for the business trip. A totally different kind of packing. Bye for now.
