Greetings from a warm and sunny Georgia! Happy to be done with all that driving and back home preparing to leave on Monday. Didn't get to see one wave splash on the shores of Florida but did get to meet a great host family. It's was easy to figure out why Natalie enjoys staying with Jamie and her children. Awesome family indeed. So, very upset I didn't think to take any pictures of them with Nat. I know a shocker.....I forgot to take pictures....I assure you it is from exhaustion.
Arrived in Indian Harbour about 11 yesterday morning. Was around for Natalie's practice and then we watched some matches. The most important match of the day was Townsend vs. Kick. Two Americans battling for a wild card to the French Open. For that was the reward to the winner of their quarter final match. The rains came with Townsend up 6-2, 4-1.
Following dinner with our host family, was an early night for us. We decided that getting up at 4 a.m. for the next three days might help with the time adjustment when we go over seas. Sooooo that is what we did. Up at four and on the road by four fifteen to drive home. Brutal to say the least!
Home and unpacking and repacking. Natalie went to watch her brother Nic play softball. Something she tries to do as much as possible when time allows. Tomorrow, Nat will head to Atlanta for tennis practice and personal training.
As of right now, our gal is still 36 alternate for the first tourney in France. However, there are still many players with a priority other then one for it. We should have a clearer picture after we arrive.
Here are a few pictures I did take while in Florida...btw....Townsend won the match and the French wild card.
