*Elwood Beach
This past Sunday John and I walked down to Elwood Beach. While I sunbathed and read (American Wife-- sooooo not what I was expecting) John went for a swim in the Port Philip Bay. The Bay leads out to the Bass Strait, historically known for being treacherous, and is typically about 60° F (16° C). Most everyone went into the water shivering and hugging themselves. Out of water was very warm indeed! I don't want to jinx it, but I think summer may have officially arrived.
*Ahoy.
The walk is about ten minutes from our apartment, following along a canal, which someone very kindly decorated for the holidays. I'm not sure if you can see in the photo, but there is actually tinsel and ornaments hanging on the rail guard.

We're leaving for Tasmania tomorrow morning. Have a safe and happy holidays and stay tuned for the Tassie update!

The beach looks great. However the water sounds a little too cold for me. I guess it is like getting in the Chatooga before summer. Niki and I are moving in Saturday the 27th to our new apartment so we will be sending you some pictures of us and the dogs. Have fun in Taz. Merry Christmas
How's it going cuzzes?? I wanted to post before it was a new year down there but it has been kinda hectic around here with moving everything from Tennessee and all. How was Tazmania in Christmas? I bet y'all had a blast. Did you do anything wild and crazy for New Year's Eve? It is 7:15 on New Year's Eve and I am posting on your blogg so that should tell you how crazy Alicia and I are getting tonight.
Johnny, thanks so much for calling mom when Hank died, you have no idea how much that meant to her. It has definitely been a tough past few weeks but we all know how strong mom is.
Anyway, I am sure you are ready to hop on a plane and fly to Hawaii to see your family. Wish me and alicia were going! Hope all is well and we miss y'all.
-Blake & Alicia
