Alice's New Love




Oh my gosh! I just found my favorite sport...Kayaking! We of course, living on an estuary and ocean next to us,have the perfect place for kayaking. Now,Bob & I are searching "Cragi's List" for kayaks! I'm so excited, this is so fun and soooo easy and nothing can brake down(like the motor on our boat).




A friend of ours came down and had a couple of kayaks and a catamaran and my chance had finally come! I have been asking Bob (for yrs)if we could go and learn how or try out kayaking. So I love it and Bob likes it too.

Welcome to the Dill's

I wanted to welcome Uncle Alan and his family to the Blog. Hopefully we will be hearing and seeing from them soon. I personaly can't wait to catch up with all of our family wherever they are. It's been a blast so far seeing where Alice lives and also seeing Jennifer's vacation pictures. What a great way to keep in touch.
There are so many family members that don't even know each other, and this will help us sort out who is from who's family.
So when you do sign on or post for the first time,(this is for everyone) tell us who you are and who your parents are so we can all get reaquainted.

Love ya, and hope to hear from ya soon.

Ripley's Believe it or not Aquarium

This was a fun place. They have a really long tunnel under the shark tank. You stand on a moving floor and it takes you through the tunnel. Really cool!
