My brother Adam came for a visit today on his way home to Wilmington from visiting our mom and step-dad in Hickory. I work from home on Mondays, so the timing worked out well for him to stop by for a late lunch. He got to see our apartment at Meadowmont and meet Paisley for the first time (she was wild, of course).
It started to rain -- no, pour -- right as we headed over to Firehouse Subs to grab lunch, so we literally ran over, getting soaked in the process, but it was kind of fun (at least it was a warm rain!) We had a great conversation, and I learned that Adam actually speaks Spanish, from his many surfing trips to El Salvador. The things you don't know about people in your family! Maybe one day Barry and I will be able to converse with him as we hope to learn a little of the language ourselves, though it's not nearly as necessary in Belize, where English is the official language. Still, we'd like to learn it as a challenge and to be able to converse with some locals who are more comfortable speaking Spanish.
Te quiero, Adam!
(Ok, so I had to look that up...but maybe someday I won't...)

OMG - he is so tall. Fun that you two could hang today. So I am sure he asked you already...but how is the surfing in Belize?
No surfing in Belize because of the offshore reef. Remember the reef I told you you'd have to sail through to get up close and personal with Belize? Yep, that's the same one! There's plenty of diving and snorkeling in Belize - but no surfing. That's why he goes to El Salvador!
