Tuesday, April 9 – We would like to thank all of you who sent a email or left a comment sending us your prayers and best wishes for Marsha's dad. His hernia surgery lasted a little over an hour and a half. He did super. The doctor gave him a pain med pump which will be removed after 24 hours. The surgery was a success and he is on his way to a full recovery! He got to go home and as of 6:30 this evening was sleeping soundly in his own bed. Thanks again. The Power of Prayer can't be beat!
Today is our last day at John's place on Amelia Island. We had a wonderful time and will certainly be back!
We did a little shopping in downtown Fernandina Beach. It is the "downtown" area of Amelia Island. Here is just a few sights that we saw along our walk.
We had a great time at the beach, pool, sightseeing, etc. Thanks so much, John, for loaning us your house for a wonderful few days.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y'all back real soon. Have a great day!
Glad to hear Marsha's dad did so well.

ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear about Dad being home in his own bed. That is wonderful news. Now that last picture would make a great Christmas card to send all your friends up north.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jim and Sandie. That picture would make a great Christmas Card picture. Good news about Marsha's dad. God is good all the time!!
ReplyDeleteWorking on your tan, I see. No sun here today. So glad to hear dad's surgery was a success ... here's to him quickly recuperating.
ReplyDeleteYou guys sure have the great looking tans!
ReplyDeleteGreat news about Marsha's Dad.
Hey you guys, I wasn't looking at your tans, I was looking at what you were reading. I like Mary Ellis and other Amish books, and I like Nevada Barr, too. Good choices for beach reading! Thanks for the update about Marsha's dad. I'm glad to hear that he came through all right.
ReplyDeleteWhat? You're leaving that great "cabin" on the beach?? I would have thought you might have decided to stay. However, I do understand the desire to head north where the rest of the family lives. In the meantime, I'd like to reserve a month at Paul's brother's place.
ReplyDeleteOh dear I am so so so bad (at replying to emails, at blogging and at reading your blog) We are in Yulee which you HAD to have gone thru to get to the Island. We are on the Island nearly every day! I am so sorry I am such a slacker and we didn't get together!!!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is don't come north yet old man winter is not done with us:(
ReplyDeleteIt is good that Marsha's dad was able to sleep in his own bed without medical staff waking him up during the night! Answered payer, yet again.

ReplyDeleteWhat a neat town that is.
That is a great area which you seem to be enjoying to the fullest!
ReplyDeleteGreat news about your dad. There's nothing like recuperating in your own bed.
ReplyDeleteLoved the pictures from Fernandina Beach. You really captured its charm in your pictures.
You both look great in that beach picture!
With those great tans, you two look like you've been beaching it. :)
ReplyDeleteFernandina Beach is one of our favorite spots to stop on our way to Florida. What a sweet little town. We always try to have dinner at least once at Le Clos, behind the Hampton Inn.
