We've been heading to FL to visit with my parents every year for the past 5 years or so, by now. It's incredible to think we've been doing this for so long; and yet, when we get down there, we feel incredibly at-home at their place. Despite cooler weather and my getting a stomach virus (I'll spare you the details), this visit was wonderfully rejuvenating.
Uncle Rick on Sanibel Island, 2/28/10
My Uncle Rick and Liz were there a few days before we arrived, so we planned for our trips to overlap. It was great to visit with them both. Liz is a delight and I love being around my uncle Rick's constant (and contagious) laughter. He looks serious in this pictures below, but the first photo captures his personality perfectly.

The beaches were loaded with shells this past week and everyone collected unusual ones. I thought it was funny that everyone had their butts up in the air.
