A Trip to the Marco Island Summer Camp

Lesley and the kids just got back from a trip to Florida. They and Lesley’s mom Joan went to Marco Island and Tampa. This trip had been planned a while ago. Instead of paying about $100 per kid for day care(camps) for the week, we took advantage of Southwest’s $45 each way fare. They got down there on a Wednesday and the next day they took a ride up to Tampa to see Lesley’s friend Kathy and her family. Quinn and Hope got along so well with Kathy’s kids, Tyler, Kelsey and Trey. After a couple days they headed back to Marco and went to the beach and the Marriott hotel’s pool. One day they went to Joan’s friends in Naples place. Margie and Johnny have a nice Condo. They have one of those moving river pools that is about 20 feet wide and winds back and forth through the pool area like a river. They also went to a very cool water park on another day also in Naples. The last adventure that they all had was a Catamaran cruise to a small island and back. They had an awesome trip. They were the only ones on the boat. After all of there fun was over they were on there way back to the real world. They had an awesome trip. Very rested and relaxed for all of their running around.

Lesley's Company Picnic at Hershey

Every year Lesley’s company has their employee picnic at the Hershey amusement park. They run such a great deal, I think we’ve gone the last 8 years in a row. For about $15.00 less than a normal single day adult ticket we get Friday entry from 6 to closing and free parking, Saturday entry to the park all day and free parking. And a free catered lunch that runs from 12-6. And, we get another ticket to come back to the park at another time that year which we almost always do. If not, we either give them away or sell them cheap. This year we stayed at a local hotel and got in Friday afternoon. We went swimming at the hotel and then went to the park. Usually Friday night is my night to hit the coasters since the park is not that crowded. Saturday I do what the kids want. This was the first year the we went to the water park. Very Fun. We spent most of the morning and early afternoon at the water park. It was huge. We had a super fun time. And are looking to go back soon.
