Sandpiper

Do you have a special place you go to get away from everything? Maybe a secret waterfall, a beach, or like me, Sandpiper Resort. On Hutchinsen Island, in Stuart at the Indian River Plantation, there is a pool, jacuzzi and a bar on the beach. The pool is just beneathe the palm trees stocked full of coconuts and the jacuzzi sits right next to it. I love the tiki bar and hate the prices of their drinks, but I guess it's better than the tourist who have to pay to stay at the resort at over $279 per night, plus the expensive drinks. They have a small area next to the mangroves called "Hammock Point" where they have about 3 hammocks, the nice kind, and you can hear the waves while relaxing in the sun.

I went there yesterday and spent the day after a sick buffet at the Baja Grill with a mamosa. We had a few drinks at the pool too, but not too many, and got a medium sunburn. Not too much sun though, for we have to save some for Sarasota this weekend. As we were getting wet in the pool, wouldn't you know it, Blair Root my old dancing nemesis, shows up with his girlfriend. Funny, I told him about this spot years ago and brought him a few times. Now it's his spot too I guess. Brandi and his girlfriend were wearing the same bathing suit. How weird is that? With all the places to buy bathing suits and all the suits every girl has for them both to wear the same one on the same day to the same place... Must be a very nice suit.


The Sun drained us and we were asleep by 4:30 after a large cheese pizza from papa Johns.


I assure you that after this weekend there will be better stuff to write about and great pictures too.


See ya Monday....
