Covid kept us from doing our favorite January activity in 2021, but we came back in (somewhat reduced) force yesterday. Of our original 20, 14 managed to evade Omicron, so here we are in Biloxi again. Different this year: Craig’s wife came down with Covid, so he couldn’t be here to welcome us this morning. Hopefully he’ll be with us Wednesday.
The first project for this week is stripping off an old roof on a house in Gulfport and re-shingling it.
Arrival day involves unpacking, a big grocery shopping expedition and dinner out — this year at Shaggy’s, a favorite beach bar/café with great local food. And the sunset over the Gulf isn’t a bad reward for all the running around…

Your roof project must have been a learning day of hard work to remove shingles and very rewarding to accomplish!
I can’t tell you how broken I am that I am not with you. A few health problems would have kept me home even if didn’t run out of grandsons. I miss everyone and send good thoughts for a successful trip. I know you will have lots of fun. Love, Rita
We miss you, Rita!
