Another Lexi Interpretation

A couple of weeks ago when Gustav was making it's way into the Gulf we were watching it pretty close. The reason is that my parents are both retired and are now what we call "snow birds". They leave the cold North and head down South every year to spend January and February on Orange Beach, Alabama. While they are down there we find any reason possible to go down for a weekend. Well, since in the past our vacation has been cancelled due to hurricanes we tend to keep a close eye on them. Things with Gustav were no different. We were very relieved when we found that not only was the storm going to miss Gulf Shores, they were not going to evacuate. I had Lexi tell my mom this news on the phone. What I told her to say was "Nana, they did not evacuate Gulf Shores." Easy enough, right? WRONG! What came out was "Nana, they did not evacuate Golf Shorts." I am sure that there are hundreds of golfers out there that are very relieved to hear that they don't have to leave their shorts behind.

Here is a picture taken on one of our trips to "Golf Shorts"
