Hello from the Dennis'

Hi everyone!

Just got on to check out the pictures - thanks for going to the trouble of setting up the site.
A few good looking young men there!

We just got back from a 3 day trip to St. Pete - actually Redington Beach. We found an older but still very nice motel just across the street from the beach. Talk about cheap! We stayed for 3 nights and it was only $135.40 including tax for the whole stay. They have a wonderful, big pool and the rooms are nothing fancy but they are clean. The access to the beach is just straight across the street and the beach is not deep like it was in Treasure Island so you are only minutes to the water. Very nice stretch of beach! Just across from the motel is a wonderful restaurant serving breakfast and lunch and there is a bar and liquor store next door to that. There is a Doubletree Inn just two blocks away that has a tiki bar looking out on the gulf. We saw a couple of dolphins while sitting there. The name of the place is The Malibu Motel and resort. Website is: maliburesortfl.com . Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone is looking for a place to stay. The restaurant that shows on the website is closed down. It is the Frog Pond restaurant that is across the street that is soooo good.

Dad fell about a week ago, while trying to help a neighbor lady. He didn't break anything but is very sore and he is having trouble getting around. I think he is feeling his age right now! Mom is doing great!

Hope to hear from some of you!

Love, Teresa & Ernie

Teresa and Ernie,
Glad to hear that all is going well! Please tell Grandpa that I hope he gets to feeling better soon! Sounds like your vacation was a lot of fun! Did you take pictures? If so you should post them so we can see! By the way, was the hotel as nice as the El Rancho or as you called it "El Ranco" that you stayed at years and years ago? Hah! Hah! Please spread the word about this site so that others will post!
Love you,
Kelly Wolfe
