Florida Day 1
Nothing like getting out at 4:30 in the morning (well, Pacific time anyway) to make you feel at home with the Harrises. Mom, Missy, and I walked to the urinal, down the beach, kicked the rock, soaked off the sand in the sprinkler puddle, and returned in one piece. Lunch with Ken and Sharon was fun, catching up on family doings on both sides. Hung out at the pool for a while enjoying the perfect weather. Got my butt waxed at Scrabble by both Missy and Mom. Missy used the word "conker". Is that a word!?!? According to the official Scrabble book o' words apparently handed down with the 10 commandments, it is. I decided since they did not provide any definition, we would choose to define it as "To subjugate a country of bad spellers."

Conker is a very naughty squirrel if you are into video games. That's the official word from Garrett. Glad you're having fun in Florida, wish I was there.
According to Merriam-Webster online (http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/conker) is is a horse chestnut, especially when used in the game called conkers, which apparently involves swinging them around on strings... weird.
