Hey, we had a bit of an emergency pop up overnight with our best gal, Ruby. She is 13 and had some health complications overnight. We are currently sitting in a waiting room in Grandy hoping to hear good news.

We are not sure when we will be open today, if at all should prognosis be bad. Thank you for understanding.

This past Thursday, I finally did something that I had been wanting to do for awhile!

One of my favorite things to do while at the beach is to sit and watch the pelicans glide and dive into the ocean. Two years ago, I was floating in the ocean when I saw several fly overhead. I stood up to watch them sail down and glide over the crest of a wave. I didn't know that Abbi was on the shore capturing one of my favorite photos of myself.

As a kid from Arkansas, I didn't know how I would deeply connect to this place. I now know there's nowhere else I would rather be and how grateful to be here and have experiences like this.

Thank you to the artist, Kristine Pollard, and the beautiful people at Big Kountry Tattoo Collective for a wonderful experience!
