Joel, Jodi & I took a little vacation down to Sarasota for the weekend before the 4th of July. It was nice to get away from our every-day jobs and spend a little time relaxing. This picture of Joel and I is at The Bonefish Grill where we ate dinner on Saturday night. We were sitting outside waiting for our table.

Thanks to Joel's aunt and uncle for the beautiful place to stay!!! It had 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, this living/dining area in the picture plus a kitchen. Our view was of the golf course. We were able to use the pool and the work-out equipment at the clubhouse each morning.

Besides eating good seafood and going the beach, one of best parts of the weekend was visiting Grandma & Grandpa Raymer's old house near Englewood. We took a road trip on Jodi's b-day and ended up seeing the house some of the places we used to go for family vacations. It was a little emotional being at the house and my grandparents not being. Plus, Pelican Pete's Playland and other places were all boarded up from the last hurricane.

Mark & Linda came down for the last part of our little vacation and then they stayed with us in Gainesville for another night. I think we all had a good time!
