sandy beaches, ye old plank, and a 6 hour drive

Friday-Monday Edwin and I decided last minute to go down to San Diego to visit his brother who is stationed there in the Navy. We've been going to San Diego to visit his brother for the last 8 years and what's so sad is this is the last time we're going and staying for free. Crap! His damn brother decided to get out of the Navy and move back home, with us that is. Crud!!! Now I'll have two 'Sharpe's" to deal with.

So I thought I'd share with everybody some funny pics I took throughout the trip. Nothing but a big party San Diego was, tons (and I mean TONS) of beer, 70 degree weather, lounging on the beach, laughs and memories.

"The rest is still unwritten" I told Felicia I felt like Lauren from "The Hills" with my hair blowing in my face driving down the coast. HA HA!!!! I'm an idiot, I know.




I slept the majority of the way to San Diego since I worked the night before, so when I got home from work at 0900, I showered and we headed straight for the ocean.



Arrived in San Diego at 6 pm. We had a few delays since we're smokers and had to stop every 100 miles for a quickie. You know what I mean, A SmOke, not a real quickie. Geez!!!



Headed straight for the pier in Imperial Beach, my bro-in-law lives across the street from it so it was just a hop, skip, and a jump to get to the ocean. This was perfect, you could hear the waves crashing from outside his place, the temp was 71 degrees and just a short walk to the liquor store too. hehehehe!!!!




Awwww, brotherly love! They're soooo cute together, it's kinda sickening.






Saturday morning I had to look forward to the soccer game, Mexico vs. Almania or something like that. YIPEEE!! Uh, NOT!!! Instead of watching the game, I talked with Felicia on the phone. We're planning a trip in August to visit Sea World, Disneyland, and possibly Kat.

I missed Kat and Muriel this weekend at Sea World. To be honest Kat, I was drunk when I called you Friday and hung over on Saturday. My bad. I hope to see you guys next time I go down in August!!!!!




What better way to recover from a hangover. Booze it up some more and relax on the beach.








Remember I said TONS of beer......well that's right TONS!!!! I took this picture of myself slamming my beer down at last call. See, I'm not much of a drinker, REALLY. I don't drink at home, I don't go to the bars, and I don't keep any liquor in the house for me. But when I'm vacationing or with people that booze it up quite frequently I let loose and tend to get HAMMERED. Umm, you really don't want to know what happened to me after this, do you?????????

Oh guess what, Blogger won't let me post anymore pics so I'm signing out. PEACE!!!
