So I was trying to start a new post but the option never showed up at the top of the blog. It took me a while to realize that I was signed in as Hannah Tolleson and the authorized person to post is Hannah Shook.... I guess I'm getting used to having Tolleson as my last name :-).
James and I are doing well. We enjoyed a week of vacation together before James started his new job with the UT Office of Admissions. We drove to the Texas Coast and camped on the beach of Mustang Island. You can see our camp site in the picture below. The sunset and the moonrise were spectacular! There is also a picture of the seagull who decided we might be a good bet for a meal and a crab hole. Once the sun set, the crabs came out of their holes. The beach was covered in white/sandy colored crabs of all sizes. We would walk from the camp fire to our chairs or from the chairs to the tent and the crabs would all scurry to find a safer place. The next morning all of the crab holes had scratch marks around them like you can see in the third picture. Swimming in the warm water was refreshing and eating local seafood was delicious!
James has been working hard and has one more vacation before I start school again in August. We are flying to NYC this Saturday and will be staying with Mary and Kurtis! We're hoping to see a jazz performance, visit the 911 Memorial, check out Coney Island, take advantage of NYC's restaurant week, and of course spend as much time with Mary and Kurtis as possible!
We hope everyone is doing well and staying cool. Three days until the Olympics Opening Ceremony!
God's Blessings,
Hannah and James

Fantastic little update! The beach camping looks particularly relaxing and charming. Can't wait to see you!!!
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I prefer hotel camping this looks like it would be fun and very pretty. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like fun and maybe cooler! It's always good to hear from you.
