After a couple of stressful work weeks, and "honey do" weekends (exciting things like cleaning out carports and sheds) the Rowley's decided to get back to their strengths: doing nothing productive.
We took a very quick overnight trip to the beach. The itinerary went something like this:
- 9 pm Arriving into town late Friday evening and eating copious amounts of seafood.
- 11 pm Laying around reading and watching TV fighting off food coma and swearing we'd never eat that much again.
- 8 am Saturday morning walk on the beach. Those who know Brian will be surprised to learn that he slept through this. Ahh, his lucky missionary companion!
- 11 am Late breakfast, eating copious amounts of seafood.
- 12 pm Renting pseudo-powerful scooters allowing Steve and Brian to race (ask Brian who won!) and Brian to chase seagulls until he was very kindly informed by a beach warden that this was an illegal activity.
- 2 pm Climbing around the jetty.
- 6 pm Returning home Saturday evening to get back in time to catch The Dark Knight. Intense movie, by the way!
The trip was way too short, but it was fun to grab a weekend together and just enjoy one another's company. We're trying to squeeze in as much fun as we can before September 17. This may be challenging, but again, as we dig deep, and draw upon our natural talent for avoiding responsibility, we think we can pull it off!
They're scruffy, but they're handsome and they're mine!
This one's for Alicia...
He's the King of the World!
We may be old. But we're still stupid.
Wow. A man and his machine.

This post makes me so excited to be a wife/mom some day.
I love the "they are scruffy, but they are mine" I miss Cameron's long hair, I know you were a fan too. Glad you had a fun little weekend getaway.
I'm glad you were able to get away with your boys for a quick trip! Trips like that you are always happy you did but always wish they had lasted longer.
Hi Lynn! Jan directed me to your blog and I LOVE it! I'm so excited about Brian's mission call! How exciting! Take care and we'll keep an eye on your Dad and look forward to more posts from you!
