-Talk about put off, I thought I posted this. Apparently I forgot it existed as a draft, enjoy!-
On March 31st, 2010, my lovely lady Faren and I took a vacation from Phoenix for two weeks. It was awesome to get away from the concrete jungle we’ve grown to know here, to greener surroundings in Florida. My Dad, Nana, and Brother all live at a place in Cape Coral, an Island town on the West coast of FL, across from Ft. Myers. We stayed here primarily during the trip.
Burying Faren in the sand
After catching up on lost sleep due to a uncomfortable plane ride (I don’t think comfortable ones exist) we settled in and introduced my lady to the family. They’d better get used to her 
The next day we got our shit together and headed off to Ft Myers Beach, where I proceeded to not put on any sunblock and baked my skin pretty well. Hey, I try to make an effort every FL trip to do my lizard impression. I was shedding my skin for the rest of the trip. The beach was packed full of spring breakers. By the way, I must recommend french fries and seagulls, unless of course you’re afraid of birds. They’ll get gutsy enough to dive bomb you and snatch the fries from your fingers. We also buried Faren and Travis in the sand. Why not?
I also have a my Cousin Damien and Uncle out there so I got to meet my new second cousin Kayla Klebart. My short-lived experience with her was great to say the least. Such a happy child. Damien has been a stay at home dad for her while mommy runs her own business. I got to experience my first LED TV + Blu-ray. I must say, it’s better then in the theatre. Better FPS then real life!
2010 Cape Coral Bike Night
My Dad, excited that I also ride a bike, rented me a Harley for a day and we took it out to the Cape Coral bike night. It rained the next day so time on the bike was limited unfortunately, but it was still a blast to ride around on a brand new Harley with my woman on the back.
Faren got a tattoo while we where out there from a cool guy named Del, we got to know him and his wife Anna in their new age shop of herbs and gems. I was going to get a tattoo as well, but Faren’s was taking some time, and still isn’t complete (a cupcake on her foot with the words “Baby Cakes”). Now we have just another reason to return to the tropics of Florida. Now to just save PTO and money for another trip. I need more blog material amirite? =P
