My feet were back at it recently when I decided to jump in my car and visit with my aunt and uncle. They live in Minnesota, but were vacationing in Florida. Their annual trip offered them a nice break from the snow and bitter cold. As it turned out, by visiting during this year's trip, I missed North Carolina's worst ice storm in years. But when it comes to family, you have to make sacrifices. If escaping power outages, ice-related damage, and Hubby, Ma & my youngest going without electronics for a few days—and the crabby side effects thereof—had to be the consequences for connecting with my aunt and uncle, than I was willing to pay the price. My feet paid right along with me.

| After leaving early to escape the ice storm, my weary feet needed some rest overlooking a pool in which they would never dip. I bet it was heated, too. |
 |
| My left foot got a good look at the majestic trees dripping with Spanish moss framing the streets of Historic Savannah. |
 |
| My toes rested in the park across from St. John the Baptist Cathedral in Savannah, Ga. My feet were very disappointed about not having time to go inside and look around. |
 |
| My feet forgave me for lack of time in Savannah as they relaxed in the soft Indian Shores sand on the Florida Gulf Coast. |
 |
| My feet did have to work during the trip. They captured heart shapes in the sand at Clearwater Beach, Florida. |
 |
| After long days frolicking along the Gulf Coast, my feet enjoyed the beautiful sunsets. |
