Well I just got back from my week at the beach with the family. It was a great time just filled with relaxing and drinking Corona's on the beach for the week!! We took the Blazer for the trip and it ran great. 1,966 miles round trip plus probably 150-200 misc miles while we were there!! The only hiccup it had was on the way home it had a hard start and the CEL came on but went off after 50 or so miles of driving. I figure its probably cause it was 95 degrees outside and the AC was on the three hours leading up to that stop and I left it on when I started it which I try not to do and it just drew alot of current on startup. No big deal it got us home with no serious issues and I couldn't be happier. I only got two pictures on my phone and the rest are still on the camera. Heres one of the Blazer doing the most offroading it saw on the trip in Myakka State Park.

And here's Bentley on his first trip to the beach at 6 months old! He loved it and had a great time. And talk about a trooper not a complaint out of him in almost 35 hours in the car in one week!

I will try to get a couple pics up later if I ever get around to getting them off the camera.

 

Looks like a blast! Haha it also looks like he might of had an adventure in the sand. And that is the true definition of baby blue eyes.

 

Looks like you had a blast! Glad everything went well too! What did you end up doing with the spare tire?

 

WTG, sounds like you'll remember this for a lifetime. Especially that pic of Bently! When he grows up & if he marries a woman named Sandy... well, you'll know why.

 

Yeah he loved the beach it was a chore keeping him from eating the sand so we just gave up and let him have at it lol!!! The crazy thing about his eyes is that he got his mothers eyes. Shes got red hair and blue eyes and I have dark brown hair and really dark brown eyes. Not sure how she was the dominant one here hmmmmm???

We had a great time! I just played it stupid and didn't take one with me. I remembered I have nation wide roadside assistance so I figured worst case I would just use that. Luckily I didn't need it!!

I will for sure remember this trip forever it was an amazing trip away with my family. Its hilarious that you said that about a woman named Sandy cause he is already in love with a woman named Sandy!! She might be his mom and my wife but she is Sandy none the less!

 

Sweet pics, and thanks for sharing. You have a very cute boy there. I've had the same problems with my boys and trying to keep them from eating sand. One side effect of a diet high in sand is that the diapers get filled with playdough afterwards.

 

Thanks for the compliments!! I guess kids will be kids and you can't shelter them to much or they will grow up wanting a vehicle with a silly little red button to push when something breaks rather than getting out and fixing it themselves!!
