Glasses.......

Well, a few months ago I went to the optometrist and he said I needed glasses, so then we I ordered them from a website. So a few weeks later I recieved them. I opened them up to find that they were not the glasses that I had ordered, and that they were all men's glasses. So my Dad called customer servive and they had accidentally switched my order and someone else's. So finally (weeks later) Saturday I got them. I thought I looked a bit nerdy in them, but I wore them to church on Sunday anyway. Some people said I looked better in them. Go figure!

Beat the Heat!

It's hotter than ever in Natchez, and I'm already wishing for winter ( I actually am listening to Christmas music right now) and trying to stay cool in this weather! It's so hot that 80 degrees is cool to us. If it goes down to 70 degrees, we're liable to wear sweaters and boots :-) just kidding! When I walk outside, my glasses fog up from the humidity! Last week, on vacation, the way my family and the Zeiglers (they were on vacation with us) beat the heat was by driving up to the highest point in the Georgia mountains. You're supposed to drive up the mountain, then take the shuttle to the top of Brasstown Bald. Well, when we got to the mountain, it turned out that the shuttle was closed.......soooo someone got the idea to climb the VERY steep shuttle road to the Brasstown Bald. In the rain. I was very upset, but I didn't want to be the only one that stayed behind. It didn't help matters to see a sign that said, "Bears are active in this area".  So we started the trek up the road that was so steep that I couldn't hardly move. When we (FINALLY) made it to the top the park rangers were like, "Ya'll climbed the shuttle road?". Ha. But all that to beat the heat because when we got to the top it was 68 degrees! Yeah! Well, my parents and I started back down (the Zeiglers were still at the top). Because it was so steep, we basically had to run down the hill. So on the way back saw a bobcat on the road. I was terrified! Needless to say, my family will go to dire straits to beat the heat! :)
