Well I finally decided to take a much needed vacation. I had a wedding for my cousin in Florida so we decided to make a vacation out of it. We left Thursday and flew down to Orlando (haven’t had internet til now so my posting is a little late… lol). We spent time with the fam. in Orlando til this morning then we drove the rental to Myrtle Beach where we will be til Friday morning. Then we get to drive home. The drive here was actually quite easy. Once I got the first 2 hours done, everything went smooth and I ended up just driving the whole way on my own (wife and mother-in-law are with me). I am keeping this up to keep some updated pics from the trip for those who care. For those who dont… oh well.
The wedding was pretty awesome. My cousin (well cousin-in-law) and her new husband both work for a stunt team in Orlando (The Extreme Stunt team or something along those lines) through Disney. They have done quite a few decent shows (Forensic Files, and some others) so they did a little skit where my cousin was “kidnapped” from the ceremony then they played a little “movie” for the guests and then both of them zip-lined onto the patio from the parking garage in full wedding gear. It was actually pretty awesome.
I’ll post up new pics as the vacation continues. Then when I get home I’m finally getting my tattoo, so it should be a pretty awesome week/weekend.
As a quick note; all pics are exactly as they were taken. I only brought my work computer so I have no way of editting them from here. I’ll post up some good quality pics once I get them editted. Picking up a tri-pod today so I can get some decent sunrise pics tomorrow.

Mount Atlanticus… AWESOME mini-golf place. By far the best course I’ve been to yet:
Taken from the top hole where you can overlook quite a bit of Myrtle Beach
Sunrise from this morning. The haze on the horizon killed it a little bit, but still got some decent shots. Yes, I know that there is a black spot on the pics… I’ve cleaned both lenses and its still there so it must have somehow gotten into the camera itself. I am always EXTREMELY careful when changing lenses, but apparently something found its way in. So for now I’ll be able to edit the pics when I get home, but I’ll have to bring the camera somewhere to get cleaned b/c I don’t trust myself doing it.
