Dolphins and hot tubs oh, my!

Ok, my dears,
the reason for my radio silence was that my family and I have been on a vacation to Panama City, Florida!

Yes, for 6 days I walked on the pier, swam in the ocean,and took a dolphin tour (we saw baby dolphins!) and I did it all (I kid you not) slathered in SPF 100 and sporting a black lace parasol. I still burned. But I got lots of funny looks and compliments. ^^  But what I will miss the most, my dear readers, is the large hot tub I soaked in every night. ahhhh, that was niiccccceee.

It all goes to show that you can still have fun on a shoe-string budget if you know how to plan. It was the happiest I've seen my parents in a while, too, which was nice to see.

And while I was gone, one of my old college friends Cameron White donated to my gofundme, thank you thank you thank you! It's donations like that that gives me one more meal or motel night than I would have had out there. Thank you for feeding me, your humble starving artist!
