Grand Isle, part 2

During our stay at Grand Isle, the kids had a great time at the beach. To break up the monotony, I would go each day to the SureWay Supermarket, which is more or less the center of the Grand Isle universe, to pick up a newspaper or other supplies. If there was a negative to the holiday, it was that I turned down an opportunity to work for a couple of days on the Jim Carrey/Ewan Macgregor movie that is shooting in New Orleans, but I figure more chances will come my way.

Grand Isle, part 1

We returned home today after over a week at the family camp on Grand Isle. I was hoping to spend a great deal of time writing, brainstorming, and generally letting the creative juices flow but I just could not seem to get on track. Aside from watching the kids on the beach, most of my time was spent reading the Beatles biography by Bob Spitz, which I started and finished--over 800 pages.
My internet access was limited--as I don't have a notebook and had to rely on the mobile library which has been in use since Katrina damaged the building.
Grand Isle is a haven for fishermen, which I am not much of. In fact, I didn't go fishing while I was there although Lauren and the girls did, and caught a few.
