July, 2003 - Hilton Head



    On to the principal July event -- our family week at Hilton Head Island.  We've been coming to this piece of paradise at Kingston Cove inside Shipyard Plantation for more than twenty years.

    NOTE: On some of these photos if you hover your mouse over the photo for a second or two you'll get a hidden caption.

    First stop? The pool with Dad:

     

     

    After a hard day poolside, a young man needs his lunch -- and a popsicle.

    Of course, if one overdoes it....

    Of course, we can fix that:

    Our beach friends Bev & Ron Radeloff came by to see da boy:

    Well, at least two-thirds of the subjects were interested in being photographed with Neptune:

    Hey, Spence!  Over here!

    Chips are better with salsa (everyone knows that):

    There was music in the plaza after the Mexican dinner.  Spence loves music.  Here's a test:  Where's Spencer???

    Here's the give-away:

    Diggin' the tunes with the Diddy:

    Next day, at the beach, we had the place pretty much to ourselves....

    Often, a young man finds things to examine at the beach other than shells:

    Say, Miss; a couple of us guys are having some friends over for Margaritas and I was just wondering...

    On his way (somewhere...)

    The ocean is fun for everyone (apparently):

    Anything you do twice is a tradition (in our family).  This is the second annual evidence that Spencer was here:

    Is this a great-looking family or what?

    This is as deep into the ocean as G-Diddy goes...

    It seems to me that Matt is hogging the castle building; but that's just me:

    OK.  OK.  Maybe I was wrong:

    Out to dinner, kind stranger at the camera controls:

    Matt, Kristyn, Spencer, Gael and Chaz

    Driving back to Atlanta, holding onto two groups of swizzle sticks.  Maybe bartending in his future?

    Next day (after getting home to Atlanta) a nifty new park Granddaddy discovered one day when geocaching:

    Gotta watch out for those 'toddler-eating tube slides'

    Children come in all sizes..

    Home for lunch:

That's our Boy!
