Where there was once only kitsch, now there is .... more kitsch

We decided to do something about our guest bathroom, which was designed in 1971 by people who were obviously on the very best psychedelic drugs available at that time. The appliances are an icky, mustard yellow and the tile 'matches' only because it's icky yellow, but splattered. Someday we'd like to remodel, but for now we painted and added a shower curtain and a 'surfboard' rug which is trying to pull all the colors together. So now its decor inspires me to laugh, instead of gag. Which is an improvement.

The photos above are three dolphins in Sebastian Inlet and a reef off Key Largo.

Our First Trip to SUUSI in Virginia

Along with about 20 other members of our congregation, River of Grass Unitarian Universalist, we made the trip to SUUSI this year. Here Jackie and the boys are waiting for the banner parade to start ...


Each one of these banners represents a congregation at SUUSI
Tons of kids to play with
Brian loved the rock climbing wall! We went tubing down the New River-- chilly!

Climbing and exploring around the River

The boys and I fit inside this tree trunk : )
