Trip to St. Augustine, Florida ~~ August 1992

Traveled to St. Augustine from August 7 to 10, 1992, to meet up with the Mars family. Since we did not get together for a vacation, we decided on a mini long weekend at the beach. It was so good to see them again. When we do get together it is almost like we saw each other more often than we actually do. It is always real good to be with them. Julie wrote me a short note as soon as they got home expressing the same feelings. As little as Jacklyn sees them, she seems to know that they are special people and always remembers the times we get together and how much fun we always have.

We stayed in a hotel in St. Augustine so we would be close to the places we wanted to visit.

The main place we went to visit was Castillo de San Marcos National Monument. The monument was built by the Spanish to defend Florida and the Atlantic trade route. It preserves the oldest masonry fortification in the United States and interprets more than 450 years of cultural intersections.
