more vacation thoughts and observations

• The place we're staying is right on a golf course...and I don't have my clubs with me.
• We've all managed to stay relatively sunburn-free. Mrs. Bunn stays on top of the sun screen situation.
• I'm not sure if I can visit the beach without building a sandcastle. Am I addicted?
• Took the kids to see Ratatouille a couple days ago. Very good flick. Maybe my favorite Pixar movie yet.
• Ever since our arrival, we've been on a quest to find the perfect pair of Crocs for Naomi. Mission accomplished yesterday. Now we're on the prowl for jibbitz.
• Andrew and I are the family go-cart champs. Our two-seater McDonalds car whupped everybody else's at Mike Greenwell's.
• We set some family goals for this vacation (other than snoobies). One of the kid's goals is to watch the complete season two of the Brady Bunch on dvd. I think they're gonna make it (they watch some of them in the car). See below for some of my Brady Bunch thoughts and questions.
• Jenny and I are trying to watch season three of 24. I don't think we're going to make it. We're halfway through with only five days left. Jack Bauer is either the luckiest person on earth or the unluckiest. I haven't figured out which yet.
• Another of my goals is to read this book while here. All I can say is wow.
• We really liked the church we visited Sunday (Next Level Church). I think we're going back this Sunday. They meet at a local high school. Their approach is similar to NewPointe's. They do a lot of things very well and it's obvious they're committed to excellence. They packed out the school auditorium. The pastor is a strong communicator. The people there were friendly and helpful.

And now, my thoughts on the Brady Bunch:

• Why does Mike Brady call Sam the Butcher "Sam" but Sam calls Mike "Mr. Brady"?
• As great as an architect as Mike is supposed to be...can he not figure out a better solution for his family's house? I mean six kids sharing two bedrooms and ONE BATH!
• I'm pretty sure Mike Brady has his pajamas pressed (I guess Alice does it).
• How do they get so many famous people to visit their home (Don Drysdale, Wes Parker, Joe Namath, Davey Jones...just to name a few)? For our family, the most famous person we've ever had come visit is Dwight Mason.
