The Ides of March will never be the same again for me. 2008 marked the first annual "Sisters Weekend" for me and my sister girls. We took off to Neva's (our cousin) house in Fort Morgan on Friday. Janet and Neva went down early to meet Patty who flew into Panama City and drove over. Ellen and I left a little later.
Ellen and I were carefully following Neva's directions(or so we thought) when we realized that we were supposed to be on I-10 and we were going under it. I pulled over into a parking lot and we phoned our cohorts. As I am speaking to Neva on the phone and as I look to my left, I see none other than the U.S.S. Alabama! We were at the Battleship in Mobile Bay. They laughed at us all weekend for getting lost on the way there.
We arrived about dark and spent an entire weekend laughing, crying, relaxing, and renewing our relationships. There were no phones (except our cell phones), no TV, no husbands, no children, and no pets. We had the best time ever. We will are planning to make it an ongoing tradition and I highly recommend it to anyone.
