mmonu.jpg: Before leaving St. Pete we visited Bay Pines Veteran's Hospital and Cemetary to see Mikey's grandfather. This is a nice monument there dedicated to those who served.

jmonu.jpg: I posed beside the monument too.

yinyang.jpg: Here's us before we left. I was blowing a bubble. It's weird 'cause I'm in the light and Mikey's in the shade.

jfairy.jpg: Moi in the wonderful Haslem's new and used bookstore. It's so cool in there. I want to live in one of the aisles. Here is me with all the fairy books. (I got to take a couple home!)

mhaslem.jpg: Here's Mikey with Lord of the Rings books, 'cause they're his favorites.

ticklet.jpg: Our next stop was Tampa, and we made a beeline for Meg's house. Here, Mikey bonds with her daughter Katelyn through TICKLE FIGHTING.

pokefite.jpg: Brendon arrived not too much later, and engaged in the Katelyn poking.

girlfite.jpg: It digressed into a slappy girl-fight.

kkerchif.jpg: Li'l Kates has on her mommy's Oscar the Grouch kerchief. It's adorable.

kpiggies.jpg: Katelyn deserves her own photo shoot. Here's one part of it: Katie with piggietails!

foodmon.jpg: We went to Sweet Tomatoes for our din-din. Katie REALLY wanted Brendon's meatballs and excessive force had to be used to keep her from snatching them.

sweett.jpg: Big hug in Sweet Tomatoes.

olpals.jpg: I think Katie's got herself a new pal.

2cuties.jpg: "Too cute for words." --Mikey

3scomp.jpg: It's me, the Kate-monster with her Oscar the Grouch do-rag thang, and Mikey with a sticky contact.

dooette.jpg: We went to karaoke late at night, and this was our last song of the night. Meg and I sang a duet on the Indigo Girls song "Shame On You." And it rocked everyone's asses.
