Vacation inside a vacation

“Hello
Is it me you’re looking for?
Cause I wonder where you are and I wonder what you do”

Lionel Richie

Sorry, we’ve been at the OBX Family Reunion now since Sunday, and everyday has been Go-Go-Go!.  Everybody is having such a great time, that there aren’t enough minutes in the day for chatting with you.  I’ll try harder I promise.  We all leave on Sunday, so I’ll make it up to you then.

So, we all pulled into this 10’000 sq/ft home with 18 master suites, movie theater, games rooms, GIANT hall of a living room, 1000 sq/ft kitchen, pool, etc…..  All right on the beach at Kill Devil Hills, just 1 mile away from where man first took flight, Kitty Hawk, NC.  We’ve got a total head count of 31 people, from 10 families.  It’s Relative Humidity at its best.  When relative get together, things got hot.

Lot’s of catching up to be done.  Too much drinking & eating.  WAY too much fun.  Just a side note, I think it’s one of the most wonderful things in the world, to have such a big, close family.  I understand that this is not the norm.  We are an exception to the rule.  Lots of people have families that don’t care or don’t get along.  But we have something very, very special, and I couldn’t be more grateful for it.

The dogs on the other hand, are not having such a great time.  We put them all in a boarding kennel for the week.  While the Doodles, are young enough to handle it, Libby and Scratchy are having a tougher time.  Last night we took Libby out early and she’ll stay in the house with us for the rest of our nights here.  Too much stress on the old girl.

Well, coffee is in hand.  It’s 8am and time to run-a-muck.  Later dudes!
