Does anybody really care?

For more years than I can recall, we've spent a long Memorial weekend with our first friends made when we moved to our previous hometown; it began before we had children and that goes back 16 years. Their parents allow us the courtesy of renting their time share in Harbour Town at an offer-we-can't-refuse rate, so this wonderful friendship-and-family tradition continues.
When the school calendar was extended after Memorial Day, the date was forced to change. But when you have a tradition seeped in friendship and a kindred connection, it's not about the day.
It's a long weekend of "whatever"…staying up late, sleeping late, eating when we're hungry, hitting the beach when we're ready, and the luxury of hanging out and catching up after a year apart.
I don't think I've known what time it was since we left Tennessee. I kinda like it that way :).
If you have time, be sure to check out the restaurant Steamers. (I used to live in Beaufort.) Enjoy your vacay!
We love Beaufort..great shops…I love the restaurant by the boats at night…fun place to just have a drink!!!
Enjoy.

We had place like that on New Symrna Beach…my Ma’s boss had a place. No one wore a watch while we were there. Few of us wore anything other than a bathing suit or pajamas. No schedule, no expectations, no make up…no place I’d rather be.
