One of the hardest parts of my job is all the traveling. Although I get to go lots of fun places, it can really throw you off mentally and physically. Last week was Lake Tahoe, the week before that was Las Vegas and the weekend before that was Ft. Myers Beach, FL. One day we’re swimming in the ocean, the next day we’re fighting off frost-bite.
The theater that booked me (The Purple Heart Theater) graciously put us up at this beach front resort…the boys (Mark included) loved it! Our room had a screened room overlooking the ocean:
The only problem is I have a very rambunctious 2 year old that would climb the outside of the Empire State Building if I turned my head. How could I relax with him running around, smashing into the railings? A loop of the Eric Clapton song, “Tears in Heaven” played in my head the entire time we were there.
We could only occupy Zeke for 2 1/2 minute intervals. Then he would run full steam into the water, get knocked down by a wave and come up sputtering.
The club was an adventure. I had no idea it was an outdoor theater. Actually, it was the booker’s backyard!
They cooked dinner on an outside grill, so I literally performed at a backyard Barbeque! The audience was gracious and the owners went out of their way to make us feel at home…probably because it WAS their home!

OK, I am sinking in jealously 🙂
What a wonderful spot
Howdy Maryellen,
I’m glad you had fun down in our neck of the woods. We used to go out to the pink shell when it was only stilt cottages. The new resort is pretty cool though. Happy New Year!
