Summer Vacation Part One

So...I'm back from a short, last-minute, but fun and much-needed vacation. :-) After working on our house for a month, we took off to the Jacksonville/St. Augustine, FL area. We decided to leave early--after I got home from work on Tuesday. We hadn't packed or anything, but we rushed around to get ready so we could make it far enough down the road to go to Texas Roadhouse for supper. Well, we made it. Barely. :-) It felt odd to order a full meal at 10 p.m., but ah well. Vacation, right?




The next morning we shopped in St. Augustine and then ate lunch on St. George Street. We were really in town just for the gelato from Cafe de Hidalgo. :-) Good stuff, let me tell you.


Then we traveled on to Jacksonville, where we checked in to one of our favorite places in the world: Hotel Indigo. (The happy couple in the hallway. ;-) )










Ah...Hotel Indigo. Our very cool home away from home. We checked in, hung out for a little bit, and then went to a mini golf place. Jason won, of course. But I beat him at the NASCAR arcade thing, so maybe we're even. Either way, it was a great start to our less-than-usual planned-out vacation.

Sounds like fun! I LOVE Texas Roadhouse and really miss it. Longhorn just isn't the same. :)
