St George Island 2009



What a wonderful time we had at the beach! St George Island, Florida is very isolated and not yet overtaken by tourists and chain stores and eateries. We had such a great time last year that we made a return trip to the exact same spot. All the Bush clan made it for at least some portion of the week. The whole island seems to move at a slower pace than the rest of the world. We ate breakfast at 9 and rarely made it off the beach unless it was to move to the pool. Very little stress. We didn't try to eat out and still had some of the best seafood ever. The local grocery made wonderful crab cakes that we fried at several meals. Karen made a delicious Jambalaya with local shrimp, and we had local steamed peel and eat shrimp another night. Add some fresh produce and we ate like kings. Brian was a little more limited this time, so I definitely got a work out loading and unloading the van. Sleep, more videos than we see in 6 months, good food and plenty of playtime.... can I have another week please?

I like how Brian has his leg propped in the middle picture. It's like he's gingerly posing for a senior picture or something
