I love My Job

It has been almost a month, I was recently reminded, since I last entered a word in my blog. Work has not been the reason. This has-Belmar!
I've been enjoying the Jersey Shore too much to spend the time on the computer.
I hope my boss doesn't read this, but I only worked 7 days in July.
He recently commented that he figures they pay me six figures to work about six minutes a month. That's how frequently they see my hands on the controls. He did go on to say that it's a comforting six minutes when I do work, because all the landings are great.

During the past four weeks. My grandsons did the Belmar Kids Fun Run- and received medals!(as did all the kids).Water temp has gotten to a pleasant 70 degrees or better.

They jumped and dove through waves for their first time. My Boat, which last saw water the summer 2005, was serviced and put back in service inthe Shark River, where it has almost daily use as a fishing vessel, sightseeing boat, grandson swimming platform and general have fun vehicle.

Cate's is becoming very comfortable at the beach. She's still a little leary of the waves and prefers still water. I have no doubt with the influence of her cousins Tiernan and Patrick, she'll be riding waves soon.
Cate loves Hannah and loves to give her treats
Another big event during the month was Cate's ( Catherine Trang Zambrano) Christening.
Here she is with her parents and Godparents-Erinn and Dom,
her cake, her Pop and her proud parents.

The Godmother and her family.

The month of July ended with the birthday celebration of Finnian Michael Stover who celebrated his First on the same day his dad celebrated a later one.
So, I've been busy.
I did find time during the month to squeeze in a 4 day trip to Calgary, Canada; a day trip to Chicago for a 13 inning Cubs game, and an overnight to Cincinnati.
I hope to relax a little during the month of August.

It's times like these I love your job too! It makes me soooo happy to know you are enjoying some QT at the beach and on your boat and with us!!! Finn must know I am somehow communicating with his Pop, he just wimpered for you. Just kidding, but I wouldn't put it past him!
In the words of Patrick, "lovey love love..."
