On my Honeymoon we went to Cocoa Beach for an afternoon and what did we see. Some old dude with his metal detector and a cup on a pole to scoop stuff up. Crazy old people. HAHA.

"You sit in a rocking chair and can't get it going."

Funny, in at least a couple ways.

The bowling and beer line cracked me up. DH (hubby) was lamenting today that his "company outing" is bowling - without the beer. I couldn't believe he was actually bummed - they still get to bowl! And, I'm not quite half his age...

I've always had trouble finding my car in the parking lot. I think that's due to the blonde streaks more than age..
