Me and bathrooms...

...Do not get along well when I am out of town!! This past weekend Michael and I went to Destin with Shelley, Brad, Matt, and Raelee! It was an awesome trip, We stayed in a 2 bed 2 bath Cabin in the Topsail Hill State Park. The water was beautiful and the waves were really big! But I got hurt again. I seriously think out of town bathrooms have something against me. We were done with the beach for the day and waiting for the tram to take us back to our cabin. I was walking out of the bathroom, got distracted by Matt and did not see a curb right in front of me... so down I went. Skinned my knee, shin, and toes, and I twisted my ankle.... But I lived and gave everyone a great opportunity to make fun of me. Now it is looking as if my knee is getting infected... Luckly I work in a doctor's office so it was pretty easy to get a perscription for some antibiotics written for me. I also have a perscription for a super duper antibiotic ointment to put on it.
Anyways back to the trip: Michael and I were not able to leave for Destin until 10pm Friday night because there was a chance he was going to have to work that night. As soon as we got the call that he was off we jumped in the car and off we went! We made great time on I-10 and got off on 331. We were making really good time on that road too until we encountered a flashing sign that said: "Caution. Detour ahead. Please drive carefully. Traffic crash." About a mile down the road we were redirected down Old Jolly Bay Rd. After driving down the road for what seemed like an hour it turned into a dirt road. Yep. It was midnight and we were driving down a dirt road. I would have been freaked out but there was soooo much traffic on the road! It was probably the most cars the road has ever seen. Finally we got to the state park and went to sleep. The next day the beach was great! We had Raelee in a float and took her out past where the waves were breaking. She started falling asleep! As least that is what Shelley thinks. I personally think she was getting seasick.... she had that look about her and as I said before, the waves were really big. Raelee ended up being the only person that didn't get sunburnt that day. Saturday night we stayed up way late and played cards. We must have gotten way too much sun because we were all laughing really hard at tiny things. All in all it was another great trip and we are totally going to stay there again. But for longer then 2 nights.

PS: Sorry that this is such a long rambling post. I have a bad headache and cannot put thoughts together very well.

I'm so sorry about your injuries!! That's not fun... I'm not a fan of falling. As for the beach trip that sounds awesome!! I'll have to check out that state park sometime.
