Cocoa
Beach Get-away (with
Zane before he went into the Army) |
|
Zane
Brown, a good friend who is following God's leading into the Army, was
looking a five year contract in the face. We knew it had to be now
or never (5 years seems like "never" sometimes), so we did
another short notice vacation. We met up in Cocoa Beach, Florida,
because the flight was cheap. |
Ok,
I walked up to the counter of the car rental place, and the guy says,
"For only $12 more per day you could have a red
convertible." You can't just tell a young guy that!
What was I to do? So yeah, that's it. It was actually one of
the highlights of the trip. It was so much better cruisin' in that
thing than whatever else it was we were going to get. How fun is
that? |
Oh...and
it worked for transporting surfboards, too! We
wouldn't have traded it for a truck! You gotta love drivin' around
with surfboards hangin' out of your convertible! We
rented these boards at Ron Jon Surf Shop. |
One
of the days we drove up to Daytona Beach. You could drive up and
down that one and rent all kinds of stuff. It was kinda cool, but
we liked Cocoa better. We couldn't leave til we got a shot of the
car on Daytona Beach, though... I
got quite a lot of sun driving around with that top down all the
time..oops. |
Here
we are in front of the all-famous, Ron Jon Surf Shop. This was
just a block over from our hotel. It was a fun place and glowed
blue at night. One
of the nights we went out to eat with some people we met on the beach
that worked for NASA. |
God
bless you, Zane, as you serve God and this country in the Army!
The trip was an absolute blast and I'll remember it forever. Thanks! Sorry
I don't have more pictures..= ( |
Ok,
we didn't exactly get a picture of us surfing because we were
busy...well....surfing! So this will have to do. But
it was great surfing! We had some real nice waves, especially the
last  day!We'd
surf for a while, then play beach volleyball, then layout, surf, v'ball,
etc. It was a busy schedule but we managed. = ) |
