On Friday we still had not received our shipment of supplies from the States, so we couldn't "move into" the house that is serving in-lieu of a hair and makeup trailer. We had a 7:30 am meeting (it was already 85 degrees!) with the director and producer to discuss specific looks for the various characters and other matters pertaining to the script, and then Rocketts and I did what any hardworking, over-achieving, self-respecting, dedicated hair and makeup department would do; we hit the beach! I don't think I have ever walked on softer sand, or waded in warmer waters. and I know for certain I've never seen that particular shade of azure blue anywhere else on the planet! As relaxing as it was (I had very nearly forgotten what that word meant!), our departmental meeting at the edge of the waves was actually legitimate; there was a new version of the script that must be read and broken down (photographic proof included!), and filming logistics to be discussed. It's hard to say whether we were working hard or hardly working, but two hours and two wicked sunburns later (Rockett's stomach is now purple, and my legs are an awkward shade of crimson) we finished the script and felt mentally prepared for the work ahead of us. It's hard work, but I guess someone's got to do it!

Ok, first the conch fritters and now the ocean and warm sand....as we miss you here in Utah and are are taking very good care of your wonderful store in 100 degree hot nasty sweaty weather... you are eating conch, playing in the surf and laying in the warm sad being fanned by a tropical breeze...hmmm...LOL.
Your tan is wonderful and yes....you did almost forget how to relax. Glad you are getting a little R&R before the long work days begin. Say hi to the dolphins for me.
Big hugs,
Cricket
