We combined work with play. Hazmat training in Jacksonville gave us an opportunity to spend some time with the family in St. Augustine, FL.

Work, work, work! All work and no play, makes for tired and grumpy truck drivers. March brought us a Winter Retreat in Gatlinburg with our bestest boating friends. Snow, cozy lodge, great food, spirited drink and amazing friends = a lifetime of fabulous memories.

April brought us much joy as Jay and Shannon exchanged the World's quickest wedding vows (I believe the ceremony was less than 3 minutes). The party that followed however, was anything but quick!

The year then brought on boating season . . . Spring Cruise in May . . . Homecoming in June . . . Fall Cruise in October. Unfortunately, because of truck repairs, this was all the boating we got in for 2013. Really hoping 2014 will bring much more H20 therapy.
BOATING FUN . . .
