Shirts are days away from being here.
Dog days of summer are here and here to stay.
Talking to Dude man at the store yesterday and he said summer is over and its been cooling down and starting to feel like fall.?.
Not sure what part of Stuart he lives.
Football is in full swing the kids are conditioned and starting to bang pads.
I love this time of year.
All teams are undefeated.
Stay cool and lay low.
Tim

Why?

Because my son dared me to.

When I was 18 it was blond.
Now it is slightly gray.
2009 Pop Warner football season is officially started today.
Lets Go Bulldogs.

Saint Augustine

Ted is always ready to ham it up for the cameras. Here is our site at Anastasia State Park. We have stayed here a few times in the last 10 years or so. Always a blast with this weekend not being any different. The trees over by the beach are dwarf like banzi like wind swept. They are very cool, and the kids always like to climb them. We also rode bicycles on the beach trying to chase down the seagulls. No luck.
This is a very nice 3900 person venue. It is a 10 min. walk from our campsite and is a new place. Hopefully we can see a show here again.
Sam say's he did not like the show, but he was checking out alot of people and situations. He also had a real good time with a box of snap-n-pops.
Ted said he wants to go on tour for a couple of years.

Super Summer Sizzler.

The kids were playing "throw the plastic bags into the return air game"


I spotted some water stains on my ceiling about a year and a half ago. They seem to be getting worse in the last 3 or 4 months. Then I thought I would call you on this Sunday night to look at this emergency water problem.

I looked at my air handler in the front lawn and I think we could have painted up or taped up those little rust holes. I think you replaced the unit a little prematurely. It was only 28 years old.


July 19th (next Sunday) our family, including both kids, are going to see Bob Wier and Ratdog in St. Augustine.
Looking forward to 3 days off of work and camping on the beach.
First time the whole family will be in the pit of big show. Great seats.
Ted is very excited.
Sam is you know Sam. He would rather have his liver cut out.
Hope they play some songs my kids will know. (After all these years I do believe they know them all.)
I'm hopping for a The Music Never Stopped.
We WILL have photos.


The mosquitoes on the river.
Fish are rising up like birds.
It's been HOT FOR SEVEN WEEKS NOW,
Too hot to even speak now.
Did you hear what I just heard?

There's a band out on the highway,
They're high-steppin' into town.
They're a rainbow full of sound.
It's fireworks, calliopes and clowns...

Keep on dancin' through to daylight.
Greet the morning air with song.
No one's noticed,
But the bands all packed and gone.
Was it ever here at all?

Everybody's dancing.
Come on children, Come on children.
Come and clap your hands.

Drink lots of fluids,
Stay in the shade,
Stay cool
It's been a record breaker.

More Summer Fun

Like Son like Father.
The mannerisms, noises, and attitude you know he is MY boy.
My Mom and Dad always said" We hope you get a son that was just like you"
He Is.
I'm so proud of him.


I keep hearing the voice of my Mother-in law and wife in the background.
What was he thinking?
Why?
It's just a phase.
What's that smell?
That came from HIS side of the family.
Will that wash off?
I'll pay for the theropist.
What did he just eat?
ETC ETC ETC
Get the point?
Stay cool

Teenage summer jobs.

My boys got a couple of summer jobs.
I remember my summer jobs, some of the most interesting and fun jobs went down in the summer.
I was serious enough to go every day but yet loose enough to not care.
Above is a picture of a new tattoo shop opening up just outside of Rocky Point.
The name of the shop is Tiger Shark Tatoos. A catchy name for Port Salerno.
The owners name is Mike Ridge AKA Fish.
If anyone wants bright colors and fine lines he is defenatly the man to see.

My oldest son Sam is 14 and hooked up with Mike for an apprentship.
For a 14 year old this does sound like a totally cool job, and in a few years he can be tatooing someone or something, not a bad trade to know when rolling off to college.

Ted my youngest son at 11 is a junor counsoler with Ohana Surf Shop.
Ohana is a very cool and layed back shop.
The owners are Jordon and Tara Schwartz and both are overflowing with possotive vibes and good Karma.
Ted helps the kids 5 days a week from 9-1 at surf camp.
He helps with the wave take off, skim boarding, hummping stuff up and down the beach and bunch of other stuff.
Cool stuff.
Fun stuff.
He is a very happy camper.


......We'd blister in the sun,
we couldn't wait for night to come.
To hit that sand and play some rock-n-roll......

Summer time jobs, what fond memrories.
