Captiva Island 2014

Good Morning!  And a beautiful fall morning it is, with the sun highlighting the lil color left in the trees.  Must say, sorry for not blogging for over a week but much has been going on and frankly I had a break.  Well, sorta a break!

Following our trip to see Doc Anderson in Charlotte, we tried to figure out a plan of action.  You see, Natalie was to escort a player to the Captiva tourney, I was to tag along.  Yea, I know a tough job but someone has to do it.  Sorry, I digressed!  Anyway, with the news from Doc, Natalie was determined to  start PT right away.  That toe's lack of movement had her very worried.  So, first thing that next morning she made several phone calls.  First, to Tab her PT wiz who said he couldn't see her that day but could on Monday.  Next a call to the gal Nat was to escort, who by the way was wavering going due to her own injury.  Those calls changed all the plans, Nat was not going to Captiva.

A dear friend of ours made arrangements for a condo for us, so I made my way to Sanibel and Captiva. Something I will always be sooo very grateful for!  A lil too last minute to find anyone to take with me.  But I was able to work with a player and her mom who seem to be having issues.  Kinda of a mentor if you will.  Must admit, was much easier for me once they left.  I enjoyed the tourney and beach, and the alone time.  Amazing how well I can sleep when out of the stressful place known as home.

While I collected seashells by the seashore, Natalie got busy with Tab.  As well as with the bands....rubber bands that is.  Part of her PT is to use a lil rubber band on her big toe.  This idea tickles my funny bone soooo much, that in the upcoming days I will be making a video.

But until then, here is a recap video of some of the sights and sounds of Captiva Island tourney:
